Barely legal will work and is working for fresh water stripers where im at now and solid white as well ....cant go wrong with the buggers and have lots of success with them in all colors when chasing trout . Ok thanks for the video keep them coming ...cheers 👍🏻

here in nc i don't trout fish much. but large and small mouth bass , crappie, shell crackers, blue gill , i don't know how many fish in 40 + years of fly tying and fly fishing i have caught. my main bass flys are wolly buggers tyed size 12 up to 3/0 . pan fish will hit about anything if hungry. papa wishing you well 😊

I would not use any of those. There are much better options

You could include a zonker too, and a marabou leech. These two have been standards for me in addition to those. But I do fish warm water species more than trout, so there’s that. I also make sure to have wooly bugger variety in my box too, shallow and deep, beaded and non-beaded, different colors, etc.

Thanks for adding the black wooley bugger! The plain jane version you showed works best for me in stillwater (when fished with a sink and pulse technique) or when dead drifted above a heavier beadhead nymph or perdigon pattern (below an indicator or big foam dry) in moving water. If you want to jiggle and / or swing your bugger in freestone streams, it should have a beadhead (or conehead) and a little flash in the tail. Brown, olive and white buggers also work well. I like the olive bugger in still water where damsel flies live and brown buggers in streams where dragon flies or brown stoneflies reside.

I love all of Kelly Gallop’s streamers. The barely legal catches me more fish than anything else. I do better with an olive or brown bugger than a black but that’s just me. Zonkers are good as well.

Really enjoyed the video Milan. Maybe you could continue this as a series. 4 or 5 must have ( dry's, wets, dropper combos, Euro nymphs etc.)

I am curious and wondering if these are also applicable to brown trout here in the UK, as we don't have any other trout species? I have landed one on a large blue zulu fly, which I fished as a streamer in a last ditch attempt to catch something, it was my personal best for the river within the very first season. Prior to that, streamer fishing was unheard of by me, apart from a similar method used in Salmon fly-fishing of which I only dabbled as it is an expensive form of angling here in the UK. I will be giving streamers a go again this season as I can see the potential they offer, in fact I think I will be doing the same methods when I go for sea trout in the same rive at night.

Excellent streamers selection

Try a size 4 or 2 Barr's Meat Whistle. Absolutely deadly

Done well with all of these and agree that the Muddler is an good first choice.

I have caught my biggest stream bred brown on a barely legal! Love that fly!

Bloody he'll you sure talk a load of crap ,!!!!???
