Description / Daiwa Fly Pack - Boobies
The booby is a modern classic and one of the most effective stillwater patterns you can own. The Daiwa Fly Pack - Boobies is a perfectly curated collection of 10 of the most popular and proven designs.
Whether you're fishing from the bank of a small stillwater or the boat on a large reservoir, this selection of boobies is a must-have for your fly box, offering excellent value and guaranteed results.
Each fly in this pack is tied with high-quality materials, with a variety of vibrant patterns and profiles, including classic "Straggle" and "Synergy" styles.
The key feature of a booby is its buoyant foam eyes, which makes it float, allowing it to be fished in a completely different way to other patterns. This unique buoyancy is what makes the booby so deadly and versatile.
Know Your Flies: A Situational Guide
The booby is a stillwater attractor pattern, but its buoyancy is the key to its success. It's a fantastic fly to use when you need to get your fly right down to the bottom and present it in a lifelike way.
Bank Fishing (The Booby Method): When fishing from the bank, use a fast sinking line and a short leader (1 to 2 meters). The sinking line will pull the booby down, but the buoyant foam eyes will keep it floating just above the lake bed. This is perfect for fishing over weed beds without getting snagged. You can fish it static or with short, jerky pulls to bring it to life.
Boat Fishing (The Washing Line): When fishing from a boat, boobies are a deadly point fly (the fly at the end of the leader). The buoyant booby on a floating or intermediate line will suspend a team of nymphs at a set depth. This is a highly effective way to cover a large area and target fish holding at a specific depth.
Important: Boobies are so effective that they are often banned on smaller stillwaters, so always check your local fishery rules before you start fishing.
