Zug Bug
Â
This month’s fly is the Zug Bug. This nymph was created by Cliff Zug, first tied in the 1930s. It was created as a caddis nymph imitation. I also use it as a cased caddis imitation. Its unique features and peacock herl make it a great searching pattern when things are slow.
Hook    - 3906B size 8 – 16
Thread – black
Weight – lead free wire
Tail        - peacock sword
Body     - peacock herl
Rib         - silver wire
Legs      - brown hackle
Wing case – mallard dyed woodduck
