Man those things are ugly to the bone. I was shopping at Wally World last week. One woman with three kids was freaking out over a Dobson fly that had hitched a ride on their shopping cart. They eventually got another cart.

Dobson flies are adult hellgramites, the "nymph" that the woolybuggger was originally designed to imitate.
9wt not needed
My "home stream" is loaded with them
One day there I witnessed an up stream migration of hundreds :eek:
That was something that you get out of the way for.

For those live bait fishermen, I hear the hellgramite is fantastic bait

I actually didn't realize that they were in the Missouri River, in central Missouri. I figured that it wouldn't be the type of stream they'd like
