If you could only use, say, 10 flies, what would you choose?
Same question asked a different way, if you were going to tie 10 flies because they were most productive what would you pick? These will be very regional!
For me:
Pheasant tail
Gold ribbed hares ear
Prince nymph
RS2
BWO sparkle dun
Hopper
Elk hair caddis
Parachute Adams
Scud
Leech, or maybe Rock Worm or San Juan worm.
Around here i'd replace the RS2 with an ant pattern but the rest of that looks a lot like my fly boxes. Well, I do have a bunch of Sulpher's so may need to find some more trade space!
