Olive the Woolly Bugger
This is a second life for Olive the Woolly Bugger. This time it is a laminated business card with the tracking code displayed prominently on the face of the card and a message on the back. In the first life, this travel bug was a piece of paper inside a film canister, green body, red top, attached to an actual TB. I launched Olive the first time in Estes Park, CO in July 2010. It disappeared sometime in 2012 after having logged 3,199 miles and 63 posts. I pulled back the travel bug number and relaunched Olive in GC4J5BY, Paradise Point, in Milton, PA on 19 Jun 2014. I guess there is some slim chance that the original might show up.
First Launch
The Woolly Bugger is one of the most versatile flies on the planet. It can imitate a leech, minnow, crawdad, stonefly nymph, cranefly larva, and probably a hundred other organisms. Most typically fished as a streamer with a fast, jerking retrieve in rivers and with a slower, steady strip in lakes and ponds.

Olive is one of twelve characters created by artist Kirk Werner for three books designed to introduce children to fly fishing.

Randal the Royal Coachman
This is a second life for Randal the Royal Coachman. This time it is a laminated business card with the tracking code displayed prominently on the face of the card and a message on the back. In the first life, this travel bug was a piece of paper inside a film canister, red body, green top, attached to an actual TB. I launched Randal the first time in Black Hills National Park, SD in September 2010. It disappeared sometime in 2012 after having logged 6,034 miles and 58 posts. I pulled back the travel bug number and relaunched Randal in GCXD49, Bearly Hidden???, in Muncy, PA on 02 Jun 2014. I guess there is some slim chance that the original might show up.
First Launch
The Royal Coachman is an artificial fly that has been tied as a wet fly, dry fly and streamer pattern. Today, the Royal Coachman and its variations are tied mostly as dry flies and fished floating on the water surface. It is a popular and widely used pattern for freshwater game fish, particularly trout and grayling. Large streamer versions are also used for winter steelhead and Atlantic Salmon.

This is a second life for Pete the Prince Nymph. This time it is a laminated business card with the tracking code displayed prominently on the face of the card and a message on the back. In the first life, this travel bug was a piece of paper inside a film canister, green body, yellow top, attached to an actual TB. I launched Pete the first time in Telluride, CO in July 2010. It disappeared sometime in 2012 after having logged 2,668 miles and 13 posts. I pulled back the travel bug number and relaunched Pete in GC4NN63, Lewisburg Bookswap Cache, in Lewisburg, PA on 20 May 2014. I guess there is some slim chance that the original might show up.
First Launch with Grandkids
The Prince Nymph is a fantastic nymph pattern that fools trout all over the world. The pattern is credited to Doug Prince. The Prince Nymph is a universally productive quasi-imitation of an underwater bug. It looks alive, but different. In the natural world different will get you killed. It often ends that way for this fly.

This is a second life for Billy the Blue-Winged Olive. This time it is a laminated business card with the tracking code displayed prominently on the face of the card and a message on the back. In the first life, this travel bug was a piece of paper inside a film canister, green body, blue top, attached to an actual TB. I launched Billy the first time in Broomfield, CO in July 2010. It disappeared sometime in 2010 after having logged 1,469 miles and six posts. I pulled back the travel bug number and relaunched Billy in GC4652A, The Camo Bug Inn, in Titusville, FL on 13 Apr 2014. I guess there is some slim chance that the original might show up.
The Blue Wing Olive (BWO) is found on streams throughout the United States. The Blue Winged Olive mayfly is a staple food source on which trout rely year round. If the weather is cold, clammy and wet, chances are good that trout will be actively feeding on blue wing olive duns. During these types of overcast conditions trout will feed during the warmest part of the day, giving anglers a good chance at presenting dries to rising fish.
