Anyway, you guys beat me to it and corrected my error for me. On second thought, I withdraw my question. It was an silly idea in the first place.

Mark Knapp 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2020 I'm sorry, you asked for pictures and a reason why. I totally missed that part. Here are pictures for my answers In Sitka my Non-Pelagic Squid has caught us more fish than any other. Here's a 92 pound halibut my buddy caught last fall. The Salmon Fork Smolt is a fly that works really well on any river where salmon smolt are a primary baitfish. Here are some smolt on the Salmon Fork of the Black River. A 38 inch pike caught on the Salmon Fork Smolt. I guess I'd pick an egg pattern on salmon rivers during a spawn. every species there hits an egg. A grayling on a Spruce Bud Worm Moth. A spruce Bud Worm Moth fresh from the mint. This turned out to be a fun thread. I'm glad you started it. I think it would be pretty boring if everybody picked the same fly.

No other fly won more than one time. In 1994, the double bunny scored more points in the contest than any fly since. After that win, the double bunny was banned from the One Fly Tournament. https://www.jacksonholeonefly.org/winning-flies https://flysandguides.com/how-to-tie-scott-sanchezs-double-bunny/ It can be a duck chucker to cast at times but has my personal record PR Northern Pike on a barred yellow perch fly, PR Brook Trout on black leach fly, and the PR Smallie was on a Half Bunny creation that stole ideas from Kiwi Muddlers, Guy Turck, and Lee Clark... Sorry, no photos of fish or fly patterns. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poopdeck 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2020 Welcome back shoebop. When I saw one fly tournament I just assumed it was for trout since trout aficionados are the only ones I've heard doing one fly contests. If I were to use just one fly it would be a squirmy wormie or a green weenie because even a moron like me can catch fish on them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had to google it since I don't have a camera worthy of taking a decent photo to post. Sorry for the deception. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

richmce 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2020 i thought the main aspect of a one fly contest was multiple aspects that could be removed from the fly usinga full fly in the am, remove some legs as the day get brighter, remove some foam so it sinks at mid day then trim it short for a hatch in the pm sort of a one fly covers all Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
