halorail 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2005 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. HaloRail Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robow7 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2005 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

getholdofjoru 0 Report post Posted January 19, 2005 I like eggs for trout and foam bugs for panfish. So hard to choose but in my opinion nothing can beat the egg dropper. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
