Thought I'd start a thread where people could share the flies they've used recently that have proved to be productive.
(If its not a secret)....
I'm finding Smelt Flies particularly productive at the moment at the lake....

Aaahhh trout fishing. I was a bit stumped by the prospect do productive flies but understand now. @Dundee seemed to use his wool and shit fly to good effect.
I are mainly into spin fishing Petros_mk but like Rushy said any shit works giving the time and effort.

I will add some of my favourite flies when I get back, that I add to my spinning set up.
you got to be shitting me....
Thats halerious....
I bought this "monkey" from the states thru cabelas and have been lucky enough to have it for 3 plus years with out losing it or getting it snagged. This is the box that it came in :wtfsmilie: No shit either:D

The one I purchased was a single hook. And is looking a bit ragged now after being hit by heaps of trout and having more time in the water than I would wish on an olympic swimmer but has given me great results.
There can be ONLY ONE! The good old GINGER MICK!!!! Caught more trout on this fly jigging than anything else on Taupo:cool:
for me the fly that has worked for me everytime I have been fly fishing is the variegated wooly bugger
Look at that flyAttachment 23553

Stu's bionic NZ mayfly nymph is working well for me as a general explorer (bottom RHS). The hot killer nymph is proving good too.
Often the biggest mistake is too big a fly with weedeater line for a trace. Most trout have yet to experience a McDonalds drive through and prefer not to supersize.
On the weekend it was pretty much these two that did the damage, sz12 lime X Stim dry and a small sz16 black BLT nymph. You could fish this rig as a dry and dropper right through the season and be confident that you should catch fish on it with a few tweaks in leader and dropper length.

The nymph is beautiful...
Hi team,
My mums getting into fly fishing and has been taising them but no strikes, anyone know a good flavour fly for the MacLarens Falls area, mainly the canals.
Appreciate any help for mumsy ;)
