A matuka, of course.  Try it in olive, pink, blue and red.  It works really well.

since im a noob tyer where would u get pictures for all these flies??

[FLYallAROUND]

go to google and try typing in the names under images. if not go to fishbc, the busy/sell/swap and at the top under pinned topincs, there is a topic about fly tying links. if you cruise around checking those out you may be in luck

This link may help too: http://www.guidebc.com/flypatterns.asp

Good on ya Leadbelly!
Remember patterns can be specific to different water systems so knowing where you fish would be paramount to knowing what you will want to chuck.
Some good all around patterns that have been left out are some true staples of our rivers.
Try some of these, the recipies are on the net or mail me if you want them. Some ARE my own patterns.

Big Red.
Coho Blue.
Great Gonzo.
Mickey Finn. (Great success with a flash over wing)
Bead head Hare's ear in size 10, 8, black. (gold rib)
Davie Street Hooker. (Caught my first sleelie with this one)
Green butt skunk.

Of course these are all flies meant to be swung along the bottom for salmon and steelies so if you were looking for summer run flies that would be another list.

The deal is to get your pattern down quick in our rivers, so pattern can be almost secondary to getting it down FAST.

Keep them tight.
