All great recomendations so far but I think a wooly Bugger is the most versatile fly you could use, especially in still water. Strip it fast and it will look like a minnow or a sculpin, let it drop and twitch and it's a dead ringer for a leech or worm.

yep, swirl nailed it
for bass a size 2 or 4(try to find the ones with rubber legs, bass love that)
for pans a size 8 or 10 will work fine. try charteuse or white, both work well for me.

Clouser and welcome to the forum. Clouser...........Clouser.

I agree with Diver Dan! Clousers! Deceivers! Sculpins! They work!

What's the best way/technique to fish a clouser?
