TroutPanther Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Hey all, Finally got around to planning my first golden trout trip. Thought I would canvas the forum to see if anyone has any helpful fly recommendations? Not sure if it will be primarily a chironimid party or whether there are other hatches I should prepare for up in the alpine. Would like to be well stocked as I have heard they can sometimes be finicky, and I have a few days to spin some golden food up. Thanks in advance.

bcubed Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Can you tie up a wind stopper? Got blown off one of the ponds today. Not even a chance to really cast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TroutPanther Posted August 2, 2015 Author Share Posted August 2, 2015 Sorry to hear. I think we are planning on staying up a night so hopefully we get some breaks in the wind... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverDoctor Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 The guys I tie for usually ask for Royal Coachman, Royal Wuffs and Adams and comment on good results. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloom Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Not a lot of hatches up there. In the morning when it's calm, we've done well with small Adams (16 or 18). When the wind picks up, the dry fly fishing slows down so we run a small leech under an indicator and do well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
