Wooly Buggers

[cdpaul]

what are your favorite bugger colors? For trout and for panfish

[Ron Eagle Elk]

Olive with a bit of flash, black with no flash and white with a bit of flash.

Hi CDP,

I usually go with blacks/greys, olives, and browns. I like a little flash mixed in so I often tie bead-heads or put a little color-matching flash in the tail (black flash in black tails etc.). If the naturals don't work, I get a little more disco oriented. Hope this helps. 8T

White, black, olive.

Usually tried (by me) in that order...will catch just about anything here in PA if you tie em in the right sizes.

Other interesting colors: hot pink, red, yellow...

I like to try different color combinations...so far the only real killer combo I've discovered is olive and white. I have a few with an olive body, white hackle, and either an olive or white tail that the feesh seem to like.

i just picked up some marabou from joann fabrics in a package that had yellow, blue, green, and red in it. i also got some foam and some material chenile. i dont know how to make the chenile work it is thick and bulky. I caught my first bass taday on a fly rod with a black and green bugger.

That is 90% of my bugger use these days. The tan one up the page a bit is the other 10%. Catches everything I have tried to catch on it, from sunfish to steelhead.

Wooly buggers....does it matter what color you tie them...they always catch fish.

I have always found with trout that the brighter color wooly buggers work best and with bluegill, crappie, and bass that the olive, brown, black, and even a yellow and black one work well.
