Weasel, I have used several fly patterns but two that I always return to are the Adams dry fly and a wooly worm. I tie the worm in several variations. Black with full palmered long hackle and short red bucktail tail or with a short grizzly hackle palmered. I also tire it in olive with a chartreuse buck tail tail trimmed short and with a grizzly hackle collar. I have never failed to catch BG with these. BTW I tie the wooly worms with and with out lead wire weight.


These are my "go to" blue gill" , bream and small black bass flies.
