126barnes Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Having over stayed what was intended, I'm looking at my fly boxes, thinking I'm a little short as the weather is starting to warm. Seems like I was stocked pretty good over the winter months, with SJW, leechs, blood worms, CJ, GRHE, PT, prince & EW. I don't go all out when it come to tying, just looking for a few patterns & sizes to add for the upcoming month or two. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ÜberFly Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 As you have probably read over the last several weeks - small black stones (I use an AP nymph and turn the body around so the wings & tail look like legs) or black prince, caddis larva, and chironie/midge patterns in the 12 - 16 size depending on clarity have been producing along with many you have mentioned...

headscan Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 With the weather warming up I'd tie a few streamers to chuck on that spey rod. Leeches, clousers, and bow river buggers should be all you need. For nymphs, I'd stick with what you listed - especially PT, SJW, CJ, GRHE, and princes plus stones. Might consider some para adams if you want to have some dries ready to go. Edit: Somehow completely forgot about caddis - sparkle pupa and evil weevils should cover it.
