Springer/ freshwater mullet on bead head woolly bugger
December 12, 2009 in Uncategorized by Jody
Went and had a few casts last night for the first time in a while, down in the fresh side of the nahoon. I rigged up my fly rod while my buddy Chris casted out a plastic worm. After numerous fly changes and my trusty black popper not delivering the goods, and chris’s plastics not delivering either he decided to rig up his fly rod. Not long and he was into this springer or freshwater mullet on a red and black bead head wooly bugger.
