My favorite pickerel fly is a chartreuse and white bunny fly on a 1/0 hook. I trail 3 or 4 inches of white magnum strip and then palmer a crosscut chartreuse bunny strip up the shank. I rub a bit of Softex on the tail to retard fouling. Sometimes I use flash. This is my main almost indestructible pickerel fly. I generally use 12 inches of 20 pound wire bite tippet but will use 30 pound fluoro if it's all I have.

Any thoughts on flies for these bad boys?Seems like they are normally smaller than most pike/ musky. So medium bass poppers/ deer hair type flies in darker winter colors?
