Schlappen Woolly Bugger (BETTER than the original Bugger?!?!)

[@JonNash]

This pattern should have so many views. I've been tying for close to 2 years, and I just learned at least 5-6 things. You are a King of instruction. Thank you.

Schlappen is awesome material. Spot on about one feather doing double duty as maribou and hackle. Now to find some fluorescent chartreuse bead chain eyes.

You got it, Kerry, and appreciate the comments. I hope all is well on your end! Tim www.troutandfeather.com

Thanks for the comments, Steve; I always look forward to your thoughts and suggestions. I have not used this sparkle eyelash yarn; where do you buy it? Thanks again!

[@TimCammisa]

Thanks, Jon; those are really kind comments and I greatly appreciate them. I need you in charge of my PR department! Thanks again, and let me know if there are ever any patterns/techniques you'd like to see. TC

[@TimCammisa]

Thanks, Steve; I'll check it out this week.

great bugger! Why the bead chain eyes vs fluorescent bead? More flexibility in weight.???

[@TimCammisa]

Thanks, Diana, and great question! This video is an older one and I am unsure why I made that decision at the time. Honestly, it may have been because that was the material I had in that color! I do prefer tungsten beads now when tying these, though if the fish you're chasing likes to see eyes, then go with a bead chain or something more visible with a pupil. Hope all is well!

Redneck Hippie Thanks for the comment, and white is such a great color everywhere! I have actually never fished for walleye in that area, so maybe try calling some local shops in that area for recommendations. Sounds like a great trip with both walleye and the 500...nicely planned! Thanks again, and good luck to you, too. Tim

[@ericluscombe3272]

looks way better if you put chenille all the way to eye

[@TimCammisa]

Thanks for the feedback, I wonder if it matters to the fish? ;-) Tim www.troutandfeather.com

[@ericluscombe3272]

@@TimCammisa I would have to say no the fish prob don't care at all lol

[@tromboneJTS]

"Schlappen Bugger" sounds kind of nasty

[@TimCammisa]

The fish think so, too! Tim www.troutandfeather.com
