Zug Bug | 3 Pack

A classic, high-confidence attractor nymph with lifelike shimmer. The Zug Bug’s peacock-herl body, soft hackle, and flashy wing case create a chunky, buggy profile that suggests caddis, mayfly nymphs, and small stoneflies—perfect for prospecting riffles and pocket water.

• When it excels: Spring through fall; riffles, knee-deep runs, pocket water, and bouldery seams; lightly stained flows and overcast days
• Why it works: Peacock herl throws natural iridescence; dark ribbing and soft hackle add movement and segmentation; compact build sinks and tracks true
• Pack size: 3 flies
• Targets: Trout (rainbow, brown, brook)
• Ready to fish: Durable wraps and consistent proportions for repeatable, bottom-hugging drifts

How to fish it

Dead-drift under an indicator at ~1.5× water depth or tightline/Euro with steady contact; add a small split shot 8–12" up if you aren’t ticking bottom. Run as the point fly and trail a smaller midge or pheasant tail 12–18" behind. Finish each drift with a gentle lift to flash the wing case like an ascending nymph.

Care

Rinse after use and air-dry before boxing. Check peacock herl and hackle after a fish and smooth fibers back into place.
