Fulling Mill Wooly Bugger - Black Nugget

Sizes 8 and 10 are common. Choose a size that matches the size of the prey the fish are likely feeding on and the clarity of the water.

While primarily designed for freshwater, it can be used in some saltwater applications, but be sure to rinse it thoroughly after use.

Cast upstream and allow it to drift with the current, occasionally twitching or retrieving it to attract fish. You can also swing it across the current.

Cast and retrieve using a sinking line to control depth. Experiment with different retrieve speeds to find what works best.

The fly's lifespan depends on usage and care. Rinse after use and store in a fly box to prolong its life.

Trout, bass, panfish, and other predatory fish are common targets.

The fly is available at most fishing tackle stores and online retailers specializing in fishing gear.

Experiment with different retrieve speeds and depths. Try varying the size or color of the fly to match local conditions.

Adjust the casting technique to avoid obstructions. Consider using a different leader or tippet material to reduce snags.
