Flies for bass? With a twist

[sabass]

Made a few casts today in a small clear lake on my lunch break today using a couple different flies. I used the lightest line I had, power pro 10lbs test w/ 2 lbs diamter and I could still only get the fly out about 10-15 feet if the wind was blowing. It didn't matter though cause the bass tore it up, 7 fish landed in 15 minutes. My problem was the hooks on the fly, being a fly lure, they design them more for bream and other panfish. The tiny hook and tiny hook gap between hook and body resulted in awful hookups and a few lost fish. If not for the lost fish, woulda been 10 fish in 15 minutes, damn fine catch rate.

Does anybody know of a company that makes flies that have a hook more suited for a bass, have a little more weight so you can use normal bass tackle, yet still float? I don't like the popper type insect lures as its just a hard body, I'd prefer something with legs and tails and antenae that stick out looking more realistic. If anybody knows of this magical lure I'm after, please let me know. Is this something I'm gonna have to make myself, or will I have to master the art of casting a fly rod first? Thanks.
