Tungsten Woolly Bugger

Size 8. Classic pattern tied with premium hook and bead. Only difference between our pattern and the standard is the use of a dubbing body. This makes the fly more slender and drastically improves the sink rate. Brown has hints of red flash dubbing. Olive with hints of purple.

The Tungsten Woolly Bugger adds extra sink to one of the most reliable streamer patterns in fly fishing. The tungsten bead helps the fly get down faster, while the classic bugger profile gives fish movement, silhouette, and a familiar prey shape.

This pattern can imitate leeches, baitfish, crayfish, or general swimming food depending on how it is fished. It is useful for trout, bass, and other aggressive freshwater fish in rivers, ponds, lakes, and deeper runs.

Fish it with strips, pauses, swings, dead drifts, or slow retrieves. It is a practical choice when you want a classic streamer that reaches depth more effectively than an unweighted bugger.
