    Good question McFish, my favorite go to topwater fly is 4", my go to clouser is around 4", and my float n flies are about 2.5".

    Personally, I'm not a huge proponent in the big fly = big fish. There is something to it for sure. However I am more of a believer in catching high numbers of bass on average sized flies, to eventually find bigger fish. This gets me dialed on where fish are holding, what they're eating, what kind of retrieve they want, etc. Then once I'm totally dialed with all this information, a larger one should come at one point in the day.

    But everything varies from fishery to fishery no doubt. The Delta is a great example of awesome "big fly" water. I'm sure the same can be said for Clear Lake, however I have found 100% of my luck there to be on smaller flies, being float n flies, and clousers 2" & 4". Hope this helps.
