Anyone have pics of examples of small clousers and crayfish patterns?
I'd like to learn how to tie them... I'll go take a search through Youtube.

I'm going through the list provided by other posters and will add some patterns to my box.
Also I don't just fish for trout so I'll be adding some small clousers and crayfish patterns.

LOL ok Norm,
I'll tell you that as a person that has been fly fishing on and off for over 20 years I still consider myself a novice.

So my six are in no particular order of importance....

1)...

No Matukas in anyone's list.... I have had very good success with the olive Matuka....

Thanks Z,

No Muddler Minnow, no Hornberg?

I was wondering what you guys thought were the top producing streamers in you boxes... I'm looking to tie more streamers. I have not fished streamers a lot so I need some guidance on what to tie.

Thanks Steve,
Having been away from fly fishing for about 10 years I hadn't been getting the mags....

Norm,
No offense taken... I agree with you that it's just another way to fish... My point was it seemed to be nothing new once you get past the no reel part.... In fairness I only watched for 10...

I went to the show on Friday. As others have said it seems smaller and smaller each year and this year was no exception. If it gets much smaller they can hold it in a hotel room. I walked through the...

Take a look at this like.... You can find something nice that your mom can go... Even if she doesn't fish... If Mom can go.. Dad can go more often... LOL...

Hi Norm,

I wasn't big on the Show last year but in the end I realized the thing I enjoyed the most was spending time with the fly tiers. I think it's worth the admission to do it again. Looks...

Here are a few patterns I played around with at the vise the other day.

This one is a little fuller pattern

This one a bit more...

I'm going up tomorrow to get there for the opening... I invited a neighbor friend who couodn't go because of the flu. He was saying there is a good show over at the Big-E every year.... Is that...

Is anyone going up to the show in Marlborough MA next weekend? I'm going up on Friday.

That's a very nice looking pattern.

Where do you live so we know what your home base is....

Thanks Steve,

I guess I was expecting to see some fine in the shallower sections that had heavy sun..... Figured they'd be looking for a little warmer water... But then again the water is moving a...

I took a ride by the Nachaug river today while at lunch. This about the 4th or 5th time I have stopped on a sunny warm day and seen no fish activity and just plain no fish..... I know we have had no...

OK,
Maybe a stupid question... Does anyone fish egg patterns in CT rivers?

I don't think there was any suckers in the bunch from what I could see...
I'll bring a rod next time I venture by there...

The biggest was 10 or 12 inches. The rest were smaller in the 8 or 9 size range...

Native Brookies have forked tails don't they?

They were periodically feeding on something... whatever it was was subsurface... They're not big fish... 8 to 10 maybe 12 on the biggest one...

This is where a 2 wt would be a lot of fun...

I work out of the house so I like to get out at lunch for a few minutes... This brook is down the road about 2 miles.... I don't think...

Trade shows started to decline as the availability of the information increased on the web...
