My fly fishing experience is weighted towards our stock tanks east of Ft Worth, Texas and I have to say my number one fly, by far, is the Becks Super Bugger in size 8 and olive. I'm thinking they take it for a dragon nymph maybe. Who knows. I just know it outfishes everything else and I always take plenty. Number two would probably be a black wooly bugger and after that maybe clousers and various poppers.
