It really depends on location, fish size,time of day ect but as a genral rule of thumb in the creeks and rivers is a Popper or a Darlberg surface fly for Dusk and Dawn and sinking flies for during the day eg Ultra shrimp, Wolly Buggers. There are 1000nds of good Bass flies....Quinny

It really depends on where your fishing for them.

In the Nepean (for example) I have used mainly surface flies. (like cicadas)

There is another one that looks like a roach but i don't know the name of it. but its *deadly* fly in that river!
