The Essential Fly Red Holographic Buzzer Fishing Fly

Red Holographic Buzzer

perfect for catching Rainbow Trout and Brown Trout.

Red Holographic Buzzer

is designed to imitate buzzers or chironomids as they emerge through the water to hatch into midges. With its holographic glint these are real attractors. Midges hatch 365 days a year to flies like Red Holographic Buzzer are important to match the hatch!

Fly Fishing Methods, Tips & Techniques

The natural buzzers / chironomids move very slowly when emerging, moving slowly up and down in the water column until conditions are right to hatch and it is important that we use the Red Holographic Buzzer to imitate that movement. A team of flies often consists of 3 buzzers including one or more Red Holographic Buzzer for trout on a droppered leader, with the heaviest (or largest) buzzer on the point. Never strip a team of buzzers including Red Holographic Buzzer, allow the team of flies to drift naturally, suspend them with a buoyant fly like a stimulator or wulff or alternatively use a Thingamabobber. Always allow the team of flies including Red Holographic Buzzer to drop below the feeding zone. Lift the rod tip slowly taking about 30 to 60 seconds to reach 60 degrees then lower the rod tip rapidly, take up the slack line and allow to drop again. The lift and drop slowly imitates the movement of the natural buzzer / chironomid we are trying to imitate with our Red Holographic Buzzer.

When using buzzers the best fishing method is to keep it slow! What are the best Red Holographic Buzzer fishing techniques? firstly the biggest mistake made by fly fishermen is because they are used to stripping lures they try the same techniques with Red Holographic Buzzer. Buzzer fly fishing is a slow technique, use Red Holographic Buzzer on a drift with a floating flyline and allow the line to drift with the current or wind or use a Bobber or other strike indicator to suspend your Red Holographic Buzzer. Alternatively use a buoyant foam fly or stimulator flies  to suspend a team of buzzers including Red Holographic Buzzer when buzzer fishing for trout 

1. Do NOT strip trout buzzers
2. Static or slow drift team including Red Holographic Buzzer
3. Vary depth of the team, trout will feed at different levels at different times of the day
4. look for porpoising trout, if they are slowly taking buzzers just below the surface swap to CDC emerger buzzers or Sandys Assassins
5. try strike indicators or suspend a team of buzzers including Red Holographic Buzzer with a Stimulator fly, Foam Arsed Blob or buoyant foam fly
6. Be prepared to use small buzzers, although size 8 is a great point fly when boat fishing a size 16 or size 18 better matches natural trout buzzer sizes

We believe buzzers including Red Holographic Buzzer are certainly one of the important flies in any stillwater fly fishermans box when fishing for Rainbow Trout and Brown Trout.

If you are on a stillwater then check our hatch charts to see what is likely to be hatching. On reservoirs and lakes natural flies that will almost always be about and catch brown and rainbow trout are midges which grow and emerge. All stages of the life-cycle can be imitated by Bloodworms which change into buzzers which we have a successful ranges of Buzzer fly patterns including Blank Buster Buzzers and Flashback Buzzers and Epoxy Buzzers / Nymphs. Once in the surface film we can imitated these by Assassin Emergers, Blank Buster CDC Emergers and Emergers and Suspenders which to the trout look like the midge pupae ready to hatch.
