The Woolly Bugger – Black/Gold is a versatile and high-contrast streamer pattern that combines the proven profile of the classic bugger with a gold body flash to provoke aggressive strikes. This variation pairs a jet-black marabou tail and hackle with a gold chenille body, making it deadly in stained water, low-light conditions, or whenever fish are dialed in on dark silhouettes and flash.
Whether you're targeting trout, bass, or even steelhead, the Black/Gold Bugger is a go-to fly that imitates everything from baitfish and leeches to large aquatic nymphs. Its pulsating movement and flashy contrast make it an excellent search pattern when fish are on the move or feeding opportunistically.
This pattern fishes well on a variety of lines and techniques. Strip it through stillwater drop-offs, swing it through river currents, or bounce it near the bottom with a sink-tip to reach deeper holding fish.
Best for:
- Off-color water or low-light conditions
- Swinging, stripping, or stillwater retrieves
- Trout, bass, and other predatory species
📌 Pro Tip: Try this pattern on a cloudy day after a rainstorm—trout will chase the bold flash and silhouette aggressively in murky flows.
