| Recipe |
| Hook: | Small sized 2XL nymph hook (example is size 16)
|
| Weight: | Lead wire or bead head optional
|
| Thread: | Black |
| Tail: | A few strands of Krystal Flash, and a small tuft of maribou |
| Hackle: | A hen hackle sized to your hook |
| Body: | Excess maribou from the tail tuft, twisted into a "rope" and wrapped up
the hook shank. Pull or snip off any excessively long fibers. Then Palmer
the hackle up over the body. Tie off head.
|
| Notes: | You can tie the Mini Bugger in lots of "buggy" looking colors. It's an easy
fly to tie, and works well. It's a good fly for casting into tricky places
where you may lose your fly. You won't feel so bad about losing a fly that
only took a few minutes to tie.
