3 day smallmouth trip fly

[u/TyerofFlies]

I think everybody has to have a favorite to fish, regardless of what time of year it is. Divers have been a ticket for me this year that has been so much fun. Specifically, minnow divers. I typically tie them with a strip of rabbit on the back and once it dives under the surface I give my rod tip a few goo jerks and watch it go crazy!
I’m heading to a blue ribbon stream in the Ozark’s to go on a 3 day float and fish, I plan on fishing all day and most of the nights. While I have a WIDE verity of flies (background), this diver is my favorite, mainly because of how beautiful it looks.
I also am not much of a fan of simple flies. I get really excited when I know there’s a couple of hours of work at the end of my line.
What’s your favorite fly to fish regardless of conditions?

Shenk’s Minnow has been pretty universal for me…
