Galloup’s Articulated Fathead Streamer
An articulated version of the MFC Flies Zoo Cougar, this streamer features a mallard flank back that presses the marabou fly body down while being stripped, creating an enticing flutter. The deer hair head at the front pushes water, producing a noticeable disturbance in the water. Unweighted, it allows you to choose your depth when using sink tips.

FAQ
What makes this streamer different from the original Zoo Cougar?
This version is articulated, with a mallard flank back that creates a fluttering motion when stripped, and a deer hair head that pushes water, producing more disturbance in the water.
Is this fly suitable for deep water fishing?
Yes, because it is unweighted, you can adjust the depth by using sink tips to control how far it sinks.
Can I use this fly in rivers or lakes?
Yes, it performs well in both river and lake environments due to its water-pushing action and natural movement.

This streamer moves naturally in the water and attracts fish consistently. The flutter from the marabou body is very realistic and the deer hair head creates good water disturbance. I’ve used it in both lakes and rivers with good results.

Great design and action. The articulated structure gives it a more lifelike movement. It’s a bit heavier than expected, but still floats well when used with sink tips. Works well in deeper water.

I’ve tried several streamers, and this one stands out for its realistic flutter and water push. The deer hair head is durable and the marabou body holds up well in cold water. Highly recommended.
