For the entry-level, first-timer flyfisher, dipping the toe of his/her wading boot tentatively into the water, the learning curve can be steep and intimidating. Gear, knots, casting, where to go, how to read the water when you arrive streamside, the challenges seem endless at times. And nothing is more bewildering when you arrive at the well-stocked fly shop and are confronted with dozens in not hundreds of bins on the fly table.

When confronted with the fly fishing dilemma where fish don’t appear to be actively feeding, making matching food with a lifelike imitation challenging, nothing beats a Woolly Bugger.
