Top Producing Terrestrial Flies

[FlyTyer16]

Hey Guys. I was just wondering what are your top fish producing terrestrial flies? Pics would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

last year I was out hunting cutts and it got really windy the pmd action stopped so I tried these little bugs out and landed quite a few throats during the high winds ... I have not used a lot of terrestrials but I'm gonna start using them more .... especially when the wind picks up.

Small foam ant patterns are great. Me personally, i like the big foamy stuff hence the name :)hoppers, skid bitches etc...

When the going gets tough, and you're dealing with a picky fish, it's always worth tying on an ant pattern. This is especially true in the fall, when a most of the aquatic bugs are done. Terry

A black ant #18-12. I tie dubbed ones and a foam one. Foam one tied on #14 &12's. I use red thread on the dubbed ants and put two or three turns of brown hackle between the abdomen and thorax. The foam ant is tied McMurray ant style:

I had a similar experience last year. PMDs weren't working so I tied on an ant as an emerger. Cutties killed that thing, it was great.

Yup the ant for me has been my go to terrestrial fly. I found the two tone black/brown is the best. However the black is good to.

Ok thank you. I'll have to tie up some ants then. Foam and dubbed.

Gonna have to agree with the ant as well, Or beetle any thing big and black with some dark ice dubbing works great for me.
