Any type of wooly bugger with big ol' dumbell eyes. I never (probably should) look at videos on how to tie certain flies, I just get too antsy and head to the vise for trial and error. Lot's more fun (and expensive) that way. I like marabou and rabbit strips for my heavier flies, and especially for bass flies. I like heavier synthetics as well as opposed to natural feathers/dubbing.
