What's your top 5 favorite flys currently in use? Don't really care where
your fishin 'em.


Thus far, it looks like ROFFT's favorite flies* a

1. PT nymph (13 votes)
2. EHC (11 votes)
3. Parachute Adams (6 votes)
3. Usual (6 votes)
3. Woolly Bugger (6 votes)

*The vote count reflects certain more or less arbitrary decisions about what
counts as the same fly....or different....and also which votes count (or
not) based on the original stipulation of 5 flies per voter.

Wolfgang
who also took the liberty of spelling "woolly bugger" as he damned well
pleases.

Is that the ol' "G after U except after L as in neighbor and play?" rule?

Someone really ought to standardize this gosh darned language!

Get on that, would you Wolfgang?

Thanks!

Just curious...

Anthony




Cooper's Bug
Caddis Variant
Parachute Adams
Plastic Lace Golden Stone nymph
Wooly Worm/Bug (Marabou tail, only half the length you usually see on them)

Three of these for sure, and probably 4 you won't find in your local fly
shop.

Oh, and for 6 I fish the Madam X (Original Swisher tie, not the weird
one's from Orvis).
