When the Brown Trout season rolls around in March, your fly box needs to be stacked with patterns that can truly deliver. One early-season essential that Steve refuses to fish without is the Depth Charge Buzzer, a proven heavy hitter as Steve calls it.
As Steve walks us through the materials, he highlights a key detail that sets this pattern apart. Many anglers fishing early-season buzzers lean toward lighter hooks, but Steve deliberately opts for a heavier hook. The added weight helps the fly sink at a more effective rate, keeping it in the strike zone longer when trout are hugging the depths.
Steve swears by the Depth Charge Buzzer for consistent early-season results. Tie a few up in this bold, vibrant purple, and you’ll be well-prepared when the Brown Trout season opens this March.
All materials needed to tie this fly are available from Glasgow Angling Centre or Edinburgh Angling Centre and are listed below. As always, if you need any help finding materials or substitutes, we’ll be happy to help.
