I could probably cut down to only these on most streams but I'm too much of a fly junkie to ever attempt it.

I've thought about trying the Klinkhammer. What is your experience with it?

Gavin, you missed the rules.... Only two dries, two wets, and one streamer. Have to pic your colors also.

No can do....If limited to 5 flies for Missouri.....They would all be nymphs.

You know Gavin, in the original article all the flies were wets. So shoot...

It's a great searching pattern. I'm amazed sometimes how fish will come out of nowhere to nail it. In appropriate sizes and colors it works great as a mayfly emerger as well. It is also, hands down, my favorite for dry dropper; really easy to see and can hold up a nymph with the best of them.

Sweet,

I'll have to give it a try.

So the Klinkhammer is a dry? Fished as a dry? I'd never heard of it until I looked it up.
