About this fly
Bugaboo - Mike Schmidt The Bugaboo is a fly that I tied up for fly fishing in the fall on into the winter. It's heavy enough to get down and bounce the bottom in faster flows, but the soft hackle allows you to swing it out at the end of a drift and get some sexy movement with just enough flash to get the fishes' attention.
