Creek Bugger Bass Version/Olive & Brown — Tying Recipe 🟠
Skill level: 🟠 Intermediate
Tie a modern Woolly Bugger that fishes all depths of the water column with the Creek Bugger Bass Version in Olive & Brown. It’s a bugger, a jig fly, and a streamer—all in one—and it produces results on a variety of fish, but it’s designed with smallmouth bass in mind. This color combo works well when trying to match molting crayfish or sculpin minnows.
The marbled head not only adds durability when jigging around structure but also provides a subtle pop of color. With plenty of moving parts, this fly offers lifelike action whether at rest or on the retrieve.
Tie a few up and see why this is one of my go-to flies for creek smallmouth!
