Wool Head Sculpin

The Woolhead Sculpin, designed by renowned angler Mike Lawson, is a highly effective streamer pattern that imitates the sculpin—a common bottom-dwelling baitfish favored by large trout and other predatory species. Lawson's design features a wool head, which absorbs water to aid in sinking, and a rabbit strip wing that imparts lifelike movement. This combination creates a realistic profile that has proven successful in various fishing conditions.

Upstream Mend: After casting downstream, perform an upstream mend to allow the fly to sink deeper before beginning the retrieve. This approach positions the fly near the bottom, where sculpins naturally reside.
