Ok,
Time to fess up, most sucessfull fly. yes i know thes closely garded secerts :-X

for me there are some that have worked better than others, these are, Pink Thing - Voltz Candie - Shauns Prawn- and a couple of Feltys i have forgoten the name of... hehehe ;)

of course i have others that have caught fish but find myself going back to the reliable ones first,
minght have to try others as there could be the ultimate fish catcher sitting in the box and i don't know ;D

am off for a few days chaseing Long-tails and Barra a better mix i could not think of ;D
the best thing is i get then two hundred meters apart.hehehe.
Hookin, Brett

The fly is a "Shaggy Dog Blue Barb" #from "Dog Tooth" which is an Aus company.

Cheers,

Chris.

I like the Bass Vampires my nephew ties for me. Great fly that work on "perch", and cheap too.

I like the ones with all the crap hanging off them...

what are they called again spin somthing or rather...

thats right spinsters, pink thing ones to be on the money.

gurgler is right up there and standard pink thing.

find it very difficult indeed to not throw a clowser every trip fresh water salt water dirty water clean water, its the only fly that I have used in all situations and one. Its also a piece of piss to tie, cheap and ya can use non fly fisho materials as well.

Freshwater=spinster (8 species)
brackishwater=pinkthing (8 species)
clearwater and anywhere=clowser light green/white (howlong ya got every thing from rock cod to queenfish)
sea salt=eye flies, candies any thing like that. (5 species)

but the best fly is a wet one mate, if its dry its useless aint it!

Deciever
Clouser
Crazy Charlie
Surf candy

these four have the most real estate in the fly box why because they work and there really simple to tie too ;D

G'day TBF.
Love Dahlbergs - Hardly caught that much on them, but the take is unreal :o

I also enjoy drifting small dries down the riffles of trout creeks.

Cheers, Slates
