Pure White Booby Fly

About the Pure White Booby Trout Fly

A true stillwater essential, the Pure White Booby is a high-visibility, high-buoyancy attractor fly that excels in a wide range of fishing conditions. With its pristine all-white body, ultra-buoyant foam head, and subtle flashes of iridescent tinsel, this booby pattern is a deadly choice when trout are feeding deep or are drawn to movement and contrast.

The white marabou tail pulses enticingly on every retrieve, while the foamy head helps suspend the fly just off the lake bed. Perfect for fishing above weed beds or in conjunction with sinking lines and slow retrieves. Its neutral, ghost-like colour profile is particularly effective in clear water and bright conditions, where minimalism can be more alluring than bold hues.

Whether you're fishing it solo or as part of a two-fly setup, the Pure White Booby is a must-have for targeting stockies and wild rainbows alike.

Expert Tip:

Fish this fly on a fast-sinking line with a short leader to keep it hovering just above the bottom. Try using a very slow retrieve or letting it hang static; the natural movement of the marabou and suspended position often triggers savage takes.
