The Micro Tungsten Bugger is what happens when you ask: \u003cem\u003ewhat if it was smaller, heavier, and tied on the best hook available?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt just 24mm (approximately 1 inch) from hook eye to the tip of the marabou tail, this is a compact, highly mobile pattern that punches well above its weight. The body-coloured tungsten bead gets it down fast - critical when fish are holding deep in the water column - while the soft marabou tail pulses with life on even the slowest retrieve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTied on the \u003cstrong\u003eAHREX FW551 size 14\u003c\/strong\u003e, a jig hook that fishes point-up, dramatically reducing snags on the bottom and giving you a much better hook-up rate on takes that might otherwise go unnoticed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur Micro Tungsten Bugger Selection contains 12 flies in total - 3 each of the following colours:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlack\u003c\/strong\u003e - The classic.

Particularly effective in the kind of water that holds wild brown trout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePink\u003c\/strong\u003e - Don't be fooled by the colour. Pink Buggers have a long and impressive track record on UK rivers and stillwaters, particularly on grayling and stocked trout. An attractor pattern that doesn't apologise for itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhite\u003c\/strong\u003e - Bright conditions, clear water, pressured fish. The White Micro Bugger gives you something visible without being heavy-handed. Also exceptional on stillwaters when fish are targeting small fry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFish them on a floating line with a long leader, or on an intermediate when fish are sitting deeper. They work equally well as point flies in a nymph rig or stripped slowly through the head of a pool.
