Articulated Deceiver
This deceiver is primarily designed as a Muskie fly, but has found a home targeting large bass and stripers as well.
Conehead gets it down, and the double hook setup allows tons of movement along with creating a long profile without a ton of extra material.
A 1/0 hook in the front and a size 2 trailer hook in the rear.

Fished it on a slow morning in a clear lake and caught a large bass. The movement and profile worked well in the current. The double hook setup gave it a natural action that fooled the fish easily.

Used it during a stripers season in the river. The conehead design and hook placement made it stand out. Got a few strikes, though not a big catch. Still a solid choice for moving water.
Zoe Peters –
Perfect for Muskie fishing. The articulated design mimics natural movement and the hook configuration holds well. Caught a 4-pound Muskie on this fly during a cold front.
