appalachian angler (tn.) 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 For trout, I have caught more fish on different variations of a bead head hares ear nymph but my favorite fly to fish would have to be a tan caddis, dry of course A.A. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4beader 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 If i have to choose just one fly, it would be an unweighted olive wooly bugger on a size 10 dry fly hook with grizzly cock hackle. I could fish it either wet or dry and a wooly bugger will always catch fish. James Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

onthefly68 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 Well being from British Columbia I would have to say the mikulak sedge has always been my favorite fly to fish that's for sure. After taking a 30" rainbow in 4 feet of water it had me sold.I have also had fun with it after dark in July casting to the sounds of thrashing takes and start stripping and..........Bam fish on!!!! We wait for the end of June and early July very patiently every year!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bentflyrod 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2005 I don't have enough experience to have a favorite fly, but I do love to spin deer hair flies. BFR Can't wait to see if the bass love them too!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paymaster 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2005 My most productive fly is a bead head caddis nymph, size 14-16. My favorite to tie is Royal Trude. It is also fairly productive on the Hooch as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex C. 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2005 I still haven't fly fished yet, but as far as looks of a fly, if I were a big brown I'd fall for all of the extended body flies, especially the Giant Michigan Mayfly, Hexagenia limbata, mmmmmm, my mouth waters just thinking about em Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
big_fish 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2005 my favorite fly is a clouser minnow I know I'll get an argument from some saying it"s a jig not a fly I have allready been down that road and my reply is always the same "it's a fly to me I'm here for the fun FISH ON " in my opion maybe one of the most versitale flies out there salt water or fresh doesn't matter it catches fish Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
