LedHed Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Plan to fish surface – drag nymphs – attractors? Visit or call a local fly store – find out what the fish are after at the places you plan to fish. Check out the fly selections in fishing catalogs for ideas for flies. You can surf the web for sites that offer the “how to” tie certain patterns. Check out: flyanglersonline.com vitualflybox.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LedHed Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Wooly Bugger - will catch everything and is an excellent fly to learn some fly tying techniques. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philB Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Hi Here in the UK it's the gold ribbed hares ear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuskyGary Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 A simple pattern to tie that will catch just about anything is a thread ant. Use a size#14 hook; make a rear ball out of thread followed by two turns of hackle and a front ball of thread. Simple to make and catches fish!

Brian_Va Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 A: I only tie my own, because B: store bought blow apart. I almost exclusively use nymphs for trout. #14 16 and 18 bead head pheasant tail. Micro muddler minnows (like the kind at Orvis). San Juan worms and various bead heads.
