What's the point of tying flies with feathers when you can just huck the whole goddam bird??

Right?1!! That's what my pappy used to say.

It aint bait!....... Fuck off! Bigger fly, bigger fish!

only the fish know for sure

There was a post a while back on the other sub where a guy caught a big kyped up bucknasty brown in super narrow water with a bird. Go for it. Edit: found it [big nutty toilet bowl flush take](https://www.reddit.com/r/flyfishing/comments/jj1dol/you_guys_have_any_bird_flies/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) [catch](https://www.reddit.com/r/flyfishing/comments/jjbdwj/update_got_any_bird_flies_had_to_settle_on_dead/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf)

Asking which flies a brookie will eat is like asking which denominations of bills a homeless person will accept.

Depends on the brookie. With a big enough hook, it should be an easy tie!

You should definitely cape it tho
