Do any of y'all tie/fish and of those really big streamers and articulated streamers? I've been thinking about tying some to use for bass but wanted to know if y'all reccomend any of them.

How big is big? By hook size? or total length of the fly?

Lots fly fish men here tie big flies using hooks bigger than 1/0. Myself also tied flies with hooks bigger than 1/0.

Here are my first ones I did. They look great in the water.

It's just a big bucktail deceiver tied with Fish Spines and a Rainy's foam diver head. Made to fish on an sink tip line. It walks nicely right under the surface.
