what is your favorite fly

Any that gets a strike.

99% of my fishing is done with a sinking line. My goto fly has to be Doc Spratley (black). When I go to the dry line it's has to be a Tom Thumb.

I hate to be redundant but a size 10 olive green wooly bugger with a little crystal flash in the tail and a small gold conical bead to get me down. The other one that goes with me everywhere is the lowly black gnat that I'll fish wet or dry. I'm always amazed at how universal these two are.
