Well my favorite to fish would be any big topwater fly, but I never get to use those around here. Most of the time I find myself using size 14-18 nymphs of whatever's in the river (or whatever I haven't lost on trees).

Why? Trout do 90% of their feeding underwater (or something like that). Fish what they're feeding on, then get on top when it's hatching.

Ok well, I personaly would rather fish on top and i just dont like to see people with $$$ nymphing and using bobers. Ok so i guess its just Strike indicators/bobers and people with money doing it that i dont like. I'll use a droper on the bottom of a dry fly but thats it.

I can't say I have a favorite fly.  I freaking love fishing big, nasty streamers.  I like them so big that only the retardedly large trout go for them.  Other than that, Royal PMX and rainbow warrior midge are my other favorites.  I love the rubber legged foam hoppers as well.

hey now, don't hate on strike indicators! a dry fly with a dropper is used as both a fly and a strike indicator.

but i like scuds alot, and i tie a rabbit hair bead head that i really like as well.

wet nymph usually works very well in slow moving river or white water pools
