Accented Jig Wooly Bugger
Hook:  TMC 5212 size 10
Bead:  2.5m tungsten attached with protruding
           0.5m maxima, burnt and pressed flat at
           the end.  This gives jigging action when

         sure the tail is at least as long as the shank
         of the hook.

                   below the marabou tail.  This stops
                   the long marabou tail from wrapping
                   around the hook.

Rib:  Copper wire
Abdomen:  Peacock herl or UV dubbing
