ZIUG BUG BH

ZIUG BUG BH

• Irresistible Flash: The body is wrapped in iridescent peacock herl, which mimics the natural sheen of underwater bugs and triggers aggressive strikes. 
• Rapid Sink Rate: The brass or tungsten bead head (BH) adds weight, forcing the fly deep into the water column where fish feed. 
• Precursor to the Prince Nymph: It features a peacock sword tail and a distinct mallard flank wing case, serving as the historical inspiration for the famous Prince Nymph.

• Cased Caddis Larvae: Its thick, dark profile resembles larvae living inside debris cases.
• Stonefly Nymphs: Larger sizes (#8 to #12) easily pass for crawling stoneflies.
• Mayfly Nymphs: Smaller sizes (#14 to #18) imitate darker species of swimming or clinging mayflies.

• Dead Drift: Fish it under a strike indicator along the river bottom to match the natural drift of dislodged insects.
• The "Dropper" Rig: Tie it 18–24 inches below a high-floating dry fly to target fish feeding at multiple depths simultaneously.
• The Swing: Let the fly sink, then allow the river current to swing it upward at the end of the drift to simulate an emerging insect swimming to the surface.
