FlyTyer16 Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 Whats your favorite flies to fish with? I'm bored in the winter so i need to fill my fly boxes with different flies and I'm getting bored of tying royal coachmen and pt nymphs. Quote
fishguide76 Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Elk hair and Cdc Caddis Materials size 12-20 dry fly hook thread olive body caddis green ice dub hackle dun palmered over body underwing olive Cdc wing Elk or deer body hair hackle brown . I fish this fly in a variety of colors and sizes but the green is by far the best producer another variant of his fly adds two or three caddis green glass beads to the body with ice dub wrapped between beads. on small creeks to bigger rivers it is an absolute killer fly floats well and drives fish nuts. enjoy. 3 Quote
FlyTyer16 Posted March 11, 2014 Author Posted March 11, 2014 Ok thanks I'll have to try that out. I would be nice if more people would post some thing else. Quote
fishguide76 Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 there are lots of great patterns on the fly tying bench portion of this forum check them out. good pics and material lists cheers Quote
Walton Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 For lakes I have great success on pumpkinheads in olive and orange, CDC Prince Nymphs, peeking caddis and halfbacks. If you want dries, try some parachute Adams, and Frying Pan Green Drakes. Traditional wets like Partridge and Orange, Lead Wing Coachman and Gold Ribbed Hares Ear are lots of fun to tie and can turn a fishless day into a successful one. 1 Quote
Guest LegoBoogy Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Not my favorite flies to fish with, but tie some pink things, they fill a box nice, and work great. Quote
