 125 in the bugger box. The problem is I don't get out enough to loose them. Here's my go to for the last 3 years or so, The white Clouser/bugger  I would say 80% of what I catch, comes to this fly I try not to go back to buggers, but when you feel a skunk coming, they end up on the line.

Steve D,
I can't believe you remembered the story, after 8 beers at the Plant!
Do you remember that graduate students' name???
I bet she didn't call after hearing our toilet talk.
Nick,
I'll put up my crayfish,
but I have yet to photo my clouser/crazycharlie crawdad.
and for what it's worth (or NOT worth) I have yet to LAND a carp, in two years! But hooking 10 means the flys work, just not person.
Steve K.

Yeah dude her name was Abby, she was studying for her PH.D, in what I can't remember, but no matter. I ran into her friend a couple of nights ago and some interesting events have unfolded since. PLBF

thewylie, They're pretty honking - 3 to 4 in. on a #6 streamer hook Your normal emerald shiner from Lake Erie size, but wet, they condense well and are not hard to cast, with medium/small eyes. The bugger style body looks fuller (is that a word?) in the water, than your normal clouser body and it doesn't have to be under tension on the swing, I had fish grab on the dead drift drop, before I was even set up at the correct depth. It's always fun to try and mend for a swing and find a fish on the line.  |

Steve I think I am going to have to tie some up with purple wings for an Ale.
Just remember its only a problem if you cant go 90 days without using them.
