What are some good bass flies?

[@kurtisworkman716]

The Clouser Minnow is usually the first answer. It is an easy tie with a small amount of ingredients. The second answer is normally The Woolly Bugger. Again an easy tie with simple ingredients. Tim has excellent vids of each just search this channel. Good luck and tight lines.

@@kurtisworkman716 thanks I am moving and there aren't any trout around.

If you know who bluelineco flies is they sell some great patterns designed for bass on their website (Bluelineflies.com) and have some great fly tying videos on their Instagram that pretty much everyone can tie. Lastly I personally love tying bass bugs they are a little tricky but have a lot of room to be creative with.
