This kit celebrates the Woolly Bugger - an evolution of the Woolly Worm fly, a variation of the palmer-style patterns. The Palmer-Worm originated in the UK and was imported to the USA in the early 1900s, where it was modified to include a marabou tail and weight to help it sink.
This pattern is perfect for targeting Trout and is especially successful as the temperature needle plummets! This is one of the most successful lure patterns in Autumn & Winter - especially when tied in these colours - Black & Chartreuse.
Feathersmith kits includes enough world-class materials to tie 30 flies in three sizes. Plus a video tutorial of how to tie each variation of the fly and associated videos on fishing your finished fly.
