HOT SPOT BUGGER

Posted by Store Admin at Feb 08, 2015

Hook: Diacchi 2220 sz 8
Medium gold cone
white 6/0 or 120 thread
Tail: Bugger Marabou White
Body: white estaz
Hot spot: Pink estaz
Collar: Grizzly Marabou natural

Great Shiner pattern fished as a dropper below an egg for steelhead or a great pattern by itself for most fresh water species...

Lay down thread base....

Tie in Marabou above hook point...

Tie in estaz and wind forward and tie off leaving enough room for 4-5 wraps of pink estaz...

Tie in pink estaz and wrap forward to cone leaving room for collar...

Tie off pink estaz...

Tie in Grizzly Marabou by the tip just behind cone stroking marabou backwards after each turn and wrap 5-6 times to make collar...tie off collar

Finished fly...

The color combination's to tie this fly in are almost endless and the hot spot seems to make a difference as opposed to the more traditional single color scheme....great in faster to medium flows were the marabou tail and collar get a chance to undulate and sway in the current...this pattern in larger sizes (2-6) is also very good for swinging...
good luck
