Gil Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Generally you want to go small in the winter. Fish are lethargic and don't hit nymphs hard as they normally do. Thererfore, hook ups are harder on larger flies. #16 SJW is a good place to start, however you may find it hard to find commercially. #18 prince, hares ear or phesant tail are other possibilities. Note: If it is too cold there is going to be too much sluch on the surface to fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SanJuanWorm Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Little chironomids would work too. The mountain midge, black and silver or brassies. Size 16. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
