I know there are a few of us on here that use light rods, 4 wt and under. I like to use a 3 weight. I am wondering what type and size of flies do you ultralighters use when you are targeting bass? I have some small bugs, similar to a gurgle pop or a chernobyl ant, and long skinny sliders that work well, and for shallow running flies I use an upside down marabou muddler in size 8 or something similar.

What about for deeper fishing? What size and weight flies do you guys throw to get deeper than a few feet?

I feel like I do okay when bass are active in shallow water, but my confidence level goes down a good bit when I start fishing deeper with flies that are more like the size of bluegill and crappie flies. DONT GET ME WRONG, I like to catch bluegill, but tangling with 2 and 3 pound bass on a 3 weight is a lot of fun.
