Default What are some of your absolute favorite trout fly patterns?

Parachute Adams in sizes 12-20 work very well, much of the time.
Grey Fox Variants are great fish finders, as are Patriot
dry flies(Charlie Meck pattern).
The Usual(Fran Betters pattern) is a great light colored fly.
I am starting to get very fond of something I call the
Coyote Ugly, but hesitate to suggest something of my
own creation for any sort of general-use list.

Under the surface, Hare's Ear nymphs, Pheasant Tail
nymphs and Black wooly buggers all work very well.
