20 best trout flies - DSbass - 11-17-2009 I've been seeing that add for orvis's 20 best trout flies while I'm on this website anyone use or heard anything about this pack it seems like a good deal so I'm thinking of ordering it to begin my fly collection. [signature] Re: [DSbass] 20 best trout flies - pa - 11-17-2009 I purchased that last summer. It was just to good of a deal to pass up. The flies are good flies and they catch fish. Go ahead and get this. Just my humble opinion.[] pa [signature] Re: [DSbass] 20 best trout flies - flygoddess - 11-17-2009 I am seeing 3 different colored Woolly Buggers, One cone head sort of Marabou Muddler*, A Chenobyle Ant*, A Sparkling Dun Dry*, PMX*, Elkhair Caddis*, different Adams*, Royal Wulff*, BWO*, Haresears*, Copper John*, Pheasant Tails*, and Prince Nymph*. Nope don't use any of them[] Seriously, the ones I put * by are my go to. Plus these are great sizes of each. They are well built flies and for less than a buck a fly...yes! [signature] Re: [flygoddess] 20 best trout flies - DSbass - 11-17-2009 lol i ordered them and i can't wait to take them out on the water! any recommendation for what fly to use this time of year out of those flies? [signature] Re: [DSbass] 20 best trout flies - flygoddess - 11-17-2009 You could use all, but the Chernobyl, the stone, the Caddis aren't really in season, but I have had them work, same with the stimulator. The Royal Wulff is a killer fly although I have no Idea what bug it is. BWO absolutely and the Adams and Nymphs anytime is a good time. Maybe add to that list a few scuds and a San Juan Worm, eggs & you got the pack. [signature] Re: [flygoddess] 20 best trout flies - lurtch - 11-17-2009 not to be disagrable fg but the stonefly is the go to fly around here this time of year and all winter..just cant beat it..just an opinion ok [signature] Re: [lurtch] 20 best trout flies - flygoddess - 11-17-2009 Okay. I stand corrected, the hot days threw me...LOL Yes, now is the perfect time for that stoner. And the color is perfect. Fish that right on the bottom. Flip rocks over and see all the bugs, but the stoneflies are sitting right on the rocks and around 1" long (some smaller) [signature] Re: [flygoddess] 20 best trout flies - lurtch - 11-17-2009 its all good..just pointing out the stooners usage this time of year..which you already new about..for some reoson they were running bigger last winter..about 1.1/2 to 2 inches long weird year just used bigger worked good..

Like I said Lurtch, I am all mixed up. Took a scout to the pond last week and there are still hoppers...ALLOT! But I do go heavy and big stoners now, but also heavy little ones. I have one in Brown and Yellow wire that I want to try in a Black and Brown or Burgundy wire for the darker stones out now.
