Bunny Bugger Jigs

[TubeDude]

[cool][#0000ff]Hey Bucko, those are meaty lookin' flies. A lot of us have experimented with using marabou and bunny fur interchangeably in our patterns. There is a growing group of jiggers and fly flingers that are using more fur all the time.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I did not include any pics of my summer trout patterns yet. I make a lot of crawdad and big nymph imitators in both marabou and fur. The basics blacks, browns and purples all work well, but combos of green and brown...some with a wisp of orange...also whack the big trout on many streams and lakes. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I first learned about the deadly green body and brown tail buggers on Strawberry many years ago, and they still are the "go to" pattern both in the spring and the fall, when big trout are chasing 'dads in the shallows. Like many of my successful jig patterns, I first used them as flies and then adapted them to lead heads.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I will be making up a new series of colors for troutskis within the next month and will post some pics then. I have ordered some new colors in the bunny fur strips and I am anxious to try them.[/#0000ff]
