SLUMP BUSTER - Pine Squirrel Zonker Streamer - Great fly for river streamer fishing

Appropriately named the "slump buster" is really a buster of slumps. This fly is so easy to tie, yet so effective! You can tie up 10-20 in an hour, and is effective for so many species of fish. Its tail moves wonderfully, the front body is wide almost like a sculpin, and its got enough weight to give some jig action. You can catch bass, crappie, small pike, many species of saltwater fish, and mostly trout. In fact, the last time I fished with this fly I caught a nice 24-25" wild brown trout on the Animas River, in Durango Colorado. This is for sure one of my go to streamers for trout fishing. Being so easy to tie, I always have a few of these in my box.

Nice tie, and nice underwater action shown at the end of the video. I hope you catch another great fish like the last, All the best, Sean

Another good one. Also agree that the water demo is top shelf mate.

I like this pattern. Gonna try in the warmer months on still water with a fast sinking tip. Thanks Angler. Well done.

Really good detailed video. I''m going to try this pattern on a jig hook using rabbit strips and a dubbing loop rabbit collar, should pulsate really well.

Love it. Now I need to hunt a squirrel and will be all set.

[@Jkannen]

Hey Mcfly! When do you use micro zonkers instead of larger sizes like 3/32, 1/8, or 1/4?

[@dylansmothermon8347]

I like to use a dubbing loop collar to really pack and stabilize the cone
