Well after being a streamer fanatic the last 6 years I am moving towards dry flies. So I need some help.
For Utah: What sizes and patterns should I have in my fly box when fishing the Yellow Sally fly? I have studied the life cycle. But as you know, there are many flies to choose from in the fly shops.
Thanks.

I've always just used a golden yellow Stimulator on a 12-14 Stimulator hook. You can add a little dash of red material on the butt of the fly too if you like.

This is the one I use. Very similar to the one in the video that Flygoddess posted. A few hackle fibers for the tail, superfine dubbing for body, wrap a hackle and clip it for the legs, and a CDC wing. Quick and easy. It shines on the big tail waters like the Green and South Fork. I use a size 10 dry fly hook.
