Do you love big bluegill?
Bugabou See You!
Two Bugabou's peer out from beneath a cement overhang, hoping to elude hungry fish.

Yes, it's true - I don't have much else going on today!

Great looking ties. Definitely fatal for the pass population around here.

UPDATE
I havent tried these yet, but member Larry Houghton has and reports the bluegill tear them up. I've sent him another selection, because the others are worn out, according to him!
My aim was to creates something that looks a lot like a lot of things. It seems I may have succeeded.

Hmmmm, I've heard the opposite, Jeff!
There is little apology, though, that I like the look of them.
I've got them with dark eyes too, that blend in.
I'll try them both and see...

Eyes or no eyes.. Seems like whenever I put eyes on a fly or jig, they don't catch as many fish as without the eyes. They look great to us fishermen though. Once again, nice work Dave!

And no competition, Allen. Your jigs stand alone, buddy.
But thanks.

I've managed to get one down to size 10. The tendency is to over stuff the hook with material, though. Gotta fight that urge.
