    Default Your Favortie Bass fly...

    I was just wondering what everyone's favorite bass pattern was. Mine happens to be the Deer Hair Bug.

    The sneaky pete is mine. It fishes great with anywhere from a very slight movement to a very aggressive strip/jerk.

    Flashtail Whistler in red/white, chartruese/white or black. Tied with a wire snag guard it can be fished in heavy cover. It can be retrieved fast or slow, fished on a vertical drop, or hopped on the bottom.

    I'm new here and this is my first post, but I had to respond: a plain 2 inch strip, 1/8 inch wide of rabbit fur on a #6 hook. Works like a champ here in Oklahoma. I just run the hook through the skin which is plenty to keep it on the hook while fishing and casting.

    Clouser Crippled Minnow is my stock answer, but when I saw 'tubers sneaky pete... well that one too.

    I'm going to cheat and list two favorites based on the time of the year I'm fishing. For late winter and early spring, my favorite is a black seal fur leach tied on a size 2 streamer hook either lightly weighted or with a red beadhead. For later in the spring, all summer and fall, it is a chartruese over white polar fiber minnow tied on a size 2 hook and tied similar to a baby bunker.

    Seeing as we are talking about favorite and not most effective, for me it has to be a deer hair mouse. I 've had some pretty awesome hits on them.

    Your hooks sharp????
