S.B.B. (Smallmouth Bunny Bugger) - UNDERWATER FOOTAGE - Bass streamer - McFly Angler

There is no question that the wooly bugger is an effective and versatile fly.  This is a variation of it that I find make it more effective for targeting bass.  While I have used it for largemouth in the past, this specific tie is for smallmouth bass.  Being chartreuse, (a popular color pattern for smallmouth in my area) it works great!  Along with 2 other fly patterns, I was able to get 12+ smallmouth bass the last trip I took.  This one alone got 3 of them.  

This fly could be tied a bit smaller, or larger for other species as well.  I find a size 8-10 hook works well with trout (also a regular sized zonker) and a size 1/0-3/0 works well for pike.  You could also use this for walleye (6-10 size) or crappie (10-14 size).  You can change the colors up to what ever suits your area.  So give it a try!
