Default Which fly for this situation?

The guy at the fly shop agreed with the weight idea. He & his wife did
NOT agree on color, so I read two books and a magazine, and waxed my
car while they argued about it. Then, I bought both their suggestions.


Should have bought a cheap vise, some chenille, two streamer necks, and
some hooks. Wooly Buggers are an EXCELLENT way to get into fly tying.
Depending on the vise, about 30-60 flies is your break-even point, and you
have the privilege of playing around for months figuring out what subtle
variation works for you.

I like a conehead weighted bugger, with green variegated chenille and a few
strands of flashabou down the sides.
