Streamers like woolly buggers generally represent leeches, other streamers may represent bait fish.
 
They are wonderful streamers and can be used for anything from trout, bream, crappie, bass to salmon from my experience.
 
I once caught(and released..I tie on barbless)about 20 nice trout on one black(crystal flash)woolly bugger in around an hour out of a single pool(Middle Fork of the New River, NC).
 
One of my favorite flies!

Ok  I'm  far from  being a good   fly  fisherman   never  had  any   training   but   I    do  enjoy   fly fishing  I  read   alot   talk to  guys  on  the  creeks  and  pick up  stuff  from   here in the  club.
A  few  years  ago  I heard  about   woolly  buggers   the  guy  that  told me about them   said   green body   black  tail  and  hackle,  well  its a  wonderful   fly   for   fall  fish,  silver  fish  or    big   chubs   and  that's  about  it    now  my   question  is.
Just   what  in the  name  of  god   are  they suppose   to    represent ?   or  are  they  just   an   attractor   fly  like  the  Royal Coachman ?    Thanks  I  really need  to  know .
