Zonkers and wooly buggers are my two go to streamers for trout... I believe in them that much that i rarely tie any other of them. Of course, i have couple of variations on each. Simple Squirrel Zonker is one of them.

Enjoy

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
