Like most of us do, I spent last evening going through all my flies, reorganizing and sorting. It's amazing how many flies we accumulate in our efforts to have everything we need to 'match the hatch'. Interestingly enough, I find, as many have, that we could probably get by with just a few: GR Hare's Ear, Stonefly, Caddis, Baetis, scuds, Prince Nymph, wooly buggers, midges, spinners, all in both dries and nymphs, in cream/white, black, brown, and olive. I personally believe that in many cases, the shade and silouette are the most important features that trout key in on, coupled with size, of course. And , size is probably the most important factor. Agree or disagree? leave a comment and let us know.
keep the fly on the water, not in the air...
