Dave Coulson ´”Buggers, Clouser
and beyond”
Dave Coulson is affiliated with Matt
Snyders Fish Explorer internet website and is a frequent
writer for the Coloradoan newspaper. Dave’s expertise runs
the gamete for trout and warm water flies.
Dave will concentrate on tying
his version of a mohair leach/woolly bugger pattern to
start, with a discussion/demonstration of weighting options
and how they can/do effect your flies’ presentation. This
will be followed by several "clouser" variations based on
different materials, and will conclude (time
permitting) with a couple streamer patterns, essentially
adaptations of saltwater patterns to fresh species,
particularly pike flies. Essentially he’d like to cover the
core of what he typically fishes with in conjunction with
shooting heads/sinking lines in lakes/reservoirs.
