Derived from the good old Wooly Bugger the Krystal Bugger uses a Cactus / Estaz chenille body to give it some pop underwater. The Wooly Bugger is one of the most versatile and deadly flies ever created for freshwater, this flashed out version deserves a permanent home in your box. This fly can be fished in freestone rivers, tailwaters, spring creeks, lakes and or reservoirs. Not only that but it will fool many species.
The white variation is shown here, I like to use when fishing still water for Trout, Bass or Pike based on size. It is great trolling behind your belly boat while fishing a Chironomid hatch or take it on full time and play with different stripping actions. Whether that be a slow figure eight retrieve a single hand strip or even the good old double hand strip it can be effective and perform based on what the fish are into.

Not sure what name you have for this fly but regardless fish will eat it. Simulating a large stonefly this pattern has become widely known for it’s fishability.
The version tied here is heavily weighted to help search deeper holes and faster runs. It is an awesome pattern in drop shot style nymph rigs with an emerger on lead. Or switch it around and have this as your lead fly with a smaller nymph/pupae trailing on the point. Learn More “How to Tie: The Rubber Legs Stone”

Umpqua has been producing the highest quality flies—in fact, the company is only interested in bringing the best to market. So, how do we insure that our quality is actually the highest?
First and foremost—our fly selection is extremely extensive and extremely picky. Many of Umpqua’s flies are created by our Signature Royalty Tyers. We select the best flies that come from extremely talented and innovative tyers. The submissions are put through their paces—on and off the water. Read more about the process in our next article. Once a fly is selected by our Fly Selection Committee, we work closely with the tyer to make sure the design specs are exact. That way, our factories can (practically) perfectly produce their bug.
