I'm going to vote for the ubiquitous bead head woolly bugger in a color and size appropriate to the spot where you'll be fishing. Nothing looks like everything as much as a bugger and the bead head allows it to get relatively deep, if necessary.

I know that's controversial, but that's my vote. smile

In a creek like that I would go with a cats whiskers in a size 10.




It's more than the catfish would do.

Tie this fly on a #2 or 4 jig hook, leaving the swivel free to revolve on hook shaft like a in-line spinner and it will catch any fish that swims.

George that fly is just incredible looking...WOW. I love your flies!!

VHS, I'd say a bead head black bugger with a little flash in it would work awesome...or as derik said a cat's whisker would be another top choice...I have done well in creek fishing on a small mickey finn made of calf tail also.
