For me it's the flies that are not popular that catch the most and most importantly biggest fish. I have fished almost every fly there is with every kind of line but have had the most success with flatwings on a floating line, with the occasional split-shot or sink tip to get down abit when nessacery. The eel punt fly is simple to tie and catches some pretty good size fish when it's tied 10 to 14 inches. You don't have to cast a mile to catch good fish if you put yourself in spots that lend themselves to the fly rod.
