Micro EURO BUGGER

[@williammiller353]

Awesome bugger, when nothing is working I can always count on catching some fish with these types of flies. Thanks

[@TroutFreak]

Thx William, yeah this pattern has definitely saved me on some days! 🙌

[@jeffcowles5328]

It still works - caught a mess of rainbows out of Lake Granby with a brown version last weekend. Thanks for the idea!

[@TroutFreak]

Fantastic! man I love hearing positive follow ups and feedback. So happy this pattern is working for you!!!!

[@blackflycreations]

Nice tie! Perfect little euro bug👌

[@daverichards6557]

Hi Watched the video. Yes! I did enjoy it and thank you for taking the time to edit it. I really like the idea of using the dubbing instead of Antron body, also I think I’m going to do what you do with the flashabou. Do each side separately. Really like that way. Thanks really learned something from your video. All the best David

[@brentfraunfelder892]

Thanks for the great tutorial. I'm new to euro fishing. Tying them is rewarding and educational...catching fish is a huge bonus. Amazing pattern, tight ljnes.

Could be really intersting to tie some with inverting tungsten beads to balance them. A near perfect dead sculpin

[@TroutFreak]

Great idea! 🙌

[@rickbrown7067]

Nice tie, keep up the great work.

[@jarrettlandreth285]

Love this pattern, downsizing your buggers is so effective in pressured water!

[@TroutFreak]

100%!!!

[@1gwp59]

Very nice, clean pattern!

[@TroutFreak]

Thx Jon!!

[@mattiasstrand5370]

A very good video and a interesting fly👌. I will try this pattern on trout in Northern Sweden 👍👍👍

[@TroutFreak]

Ooohhhhh, lemme know if it's effective in Sweden! That would be cool to know.

[@mattiasstrand5370]

@@TroutFreak Absolutely 👍

[@mattiasstrand5370]

It was real "killer" but I practice C&R😁 It was dancing on the bottom perfectly 👌

[@TroutFreak]

That's amazing! Thx for following through. Hope you had a blast.

[@larrygladue3879]

Looks nice and inviting to those fussy ones. Thanks for sharing.

[@TroutFreak]

So nice of you

[@richardherrington2852]

Great fly. Thanks for posting this video. I will be tying up this fly in various colors to try on big Bluegill and Shellcrackers here in Texas. U.S. Army, (ret)

[@TroutFreak]

Heck yeah! That's what I like to hear. Tight lines my friend.

[@troutfisher_ri1782]

Nice Tie Bud...great proven pattern!..may I suggest when dubbing your thread twist the dubbing clockwise on your thread...it will want to naturally tighten as you wrap your your body and create a tighter thinner noodle as you wrap. Looking forward to watching more of your stuff !

[@TroutFreak]

Ha! Yeah I do know that but I just "naturally" dub the other way, and when I'm recording and narrating it just completely gets forgotten 🤣😂

[@kandiecandelaria3134]

Very very nice! Going to make some

[@TroutFreak]

Please do!

[@cachi-7878]

Nice! Curious why you didn’t reinforce the hackle with wire or some other material. Thanks.

[@TroutFreak]

No reason specifically, some patterns I'll add tippet or xs wire to reinforce hackle, especially ones with longer abdomens. But IMO a smaller fly like this doesn't need it. If it catches me 1-2 fish, the fly has done it's job 🙌 But by all means, if you want to add tippet, go for it!

[@charlesloftis2920]

Excellent, My Friend!

[@TroutFreak]

Thx Chuck!

[@snakeoiler2921]

Sweet bugger. I'll give that a shot

[@davidnix5211]

Great video! Thanks man!

[@TroutFreak]

🙌👊

[@westsidewil]

Very nice.

[@lesleykennerson4950]

I see your using Togen hooks & beads, how long did it take to get your order? Since they relocated the shipping to Alberta is extremely slow…

[@netrich143]

[@scotmclellan5190]

thank you..tight lines :)

[@TroutFreak]

You're welcome!

[@tromboneJTS]

It swims upside down? Do I need a jig hook or can I tie it on a standard nymph hook?

[@TroutFreak]

Hi Thomas, this specific pattern, yes,want to swim upside down and fish it with a jigging motion. However, you can definitely tie it on a standard hook and would pretty much be a small woolly bugger 🙌
