| Hook | VMC PS Streamer Hook: Size #6; for me the best saltwater streamer hook out there! |
| Thread | UTC Ultra Thread 140 Denier: A very good thread! Very tear-proof and there is a whole range of colors available (fits to the colors of Krystal Dub & Soft Hackle with Chickabou). |
| Bead | I use 4 mm tungsten beads in various colors which weight and size fits great for my Woollys! They do not give too much weight but cause a nice jigging. |
| Tail and body hackle | Whiting Soft Hackle & Chickabou: The Woolly Bugger I tie is definitely living from its materials. The Soft Hackle & Chickabou from Whiting is a quiet rare material but very economic and giving perfect results. The Chickabou replaces the Marabo |
| Tail | I use two strips of pearl colored Krystal Flash for the tail. Less is more! |
| Body | Krystal Dub: The Krystal Dub is used because it is a very fine natural (rabbit) dubbing with a minimum of shiny fibers. The small amount of fibers gives a nice little glimmer when the fly is brushed with Velcro after tying. |
