I'll use 15-20 lb test. We're fishing structure, so the heavy line helps get us out of trouble. Remember when the water is cold, slow these down. Fish can't move to attack in cold water conditions and they'll likely just ignore you. However, once the river warms later in the day, don't be afraid to put some RPM's on your retrieve.  Spring is leech mating time, so this pattern in purple, black and black with brown hackle is great under a nymph rig. Typically as the point fly and don't be afraid to hold for a second or two at the end of the drift. Often you'll get a strike while the bug is moving towards the service on the drag. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring June and July, Brown works very well under an indicator. I have a feeling the trout see it as a Golden Stone nymph. I can't verify this but my guide notes tell me to put this unit on the line this time of year and it works. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the water bumps up and gets a little cloudy, I like these in dark colours bounced off the bank into the pockets. I'll use a floating line here, with a short 3 to 4 foot fluoro to the fly line. We'll fish fast with only two or 3 strips off the bank and then right back into the next pocket. In High Water, trout tend to head tight into the deflections on the bank. If you're not in a boat, just position yourself to get the best drift into the likely water, but be safe! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack, Purple, Olive, Brown and Black with Brown Hackle (this one is my favourite and that's why I had to add it and make this a 15 pack. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3 of each Colour. sizes 4,6,8 (1 each) \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're after some smaller leech patterns, check out our Leech Assortment. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bow River Fly Fishing Company LTD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52200260731169,"sku":null,"price":14.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0676\/9636\/1761\/files\/WoolyBuggerPack.svg?v=1769115714","url":"https:\/\/maddrifter.ca\/products\/15-wooly-bugger-assortment","provider":"Mad Drifter Designs ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
