Tie The Pearl Vicar Buzzer with Alun Rees

A simple but effective variant of an established buzzer pattern. As catch and release is more common place nowadays, fish quickly learn what patterns 'bite back!' Having a number of variants of established patterns in your box can often mean converting tentative takes to fish in the net and so it pays to have variety in your fly box. You can tie the pattern with a rib of black flexi floss. I don't. It doesn't lose it's effectiveness but does make it simpler to tie.
