Crystal White Bugger tied by Mark LaBar

Streamer hook of choice (this is size 6)

Tail: Chicken marabou - I use this because I can make the tail a little longer and it has a stem that keeps the fibers from wrapping around the hook bend when I'm casting. It also has some sideways "spring" to it so when it is stripped it has a swimming motion.

Hackle: Pure white saddle or bottom of cape, should have a good taper to it for proper effect.

Body: Pearl estaz

Rib is optional some of mine have them some don't (because I forget to tie it in) rib will help make it bullet proof.
