Nick Adams Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 I agree. Your flies look better than mine. Just start choosing new patterns and seeing what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomolites Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Those pheasant tails will catch….in addition to all the other suggestions size 16-18 ruby midges are a good alternate to zebra midges and can be tough to beat some days.

Good luck. When you tire from catching those non-native and invasive species down size and go for those native micros 😉. Just remember to post photos since @snagged in outlet 3 likes a lot of photos!

I tried tying up the Charlie Craven version but I suck at dubbing loops, so I just palmered the collar. Mine is pretty simple. I just use one strip. Tie it in at the tail and then palmer it up. I also fish it more like a streamer and key on the fish that show interest in chasing it. Here’s my perfect size and color for RR. snagged in outlet 3, nomolites and BilletHead 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I those a lot with squirrel and rabbit strips, sometimes on jig heads. Looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really a mink kind of a girl, but I'd be willing to give it a try. BilletHead 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
