{"product_id":"booby-humungus-olive","title":"Booby Humungus Olive Lure","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Booby Humungus Olive Lure is a versatile stillwater fly that combines the flowing movement of a Woolly Bugger with the bold attraction of a Dog Nobbler style pattern. Finished in natural olive tones, it offers a more subtle appearance while still keeping the lively action that makes Humungus style boobies so effective.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesigned to suggest fry, leeches or general aquatic movement rather than a precise imitation, this pattern works particularly well when trout are feeding deeper or cruising just off the bottom. The buoyant booby eyes help lift the fly during pauses in the retrieve, creating a rise-and-fall motion that often triggers reaction takes. It’s a strong searching lure when you need to cover water and draw fish in without relying on overly bright colours.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease note all of our fishing flies are barbless unless otherwise stated.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBooby Humungus Olive Lure Specification\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTarget Species - Trout\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTail - Marabou Olive \u0026amp; Holo Silver\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBody - Fritz Silver\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHackle - Grizzle Cock\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHead - White Booby\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHook - Barbless, Mustad of Norway\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow To Fish the Booby Humungus Olive Lure\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWashing Line Booby Setup\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFish the Olive Humungus on the point with smaller nymphs or attractors fished on droppers above.
