Looking good

This has been a dilemma for me for over half a century. It usually comes down to me parring down my gear and then I'm happy. Gear and too many flies can really get to be a burden. I either go big with a sling pack or very small with a cheap butt pack. Love the small butt pack.

That looks like a fun stick.

hook: 1x or 2x long nymph hook lead or substitute: 1/2 length of the shank thread: red or black 8/0 (I like small diameter thread on this fly to avoid a large head build up) tail: brown goose biots rib: small gold oval tinsel or wire body: peacock hackle: brown hen neck horns?: white goose biots gold bead optional I like these with and without beads but always weighted. The fly has accounted for more fish for me than any fly I have ever fished. I've tried a few flies over the last 60 years. I consider resin or epoxy on the head a must as it likes to fall apart at the head. I also add a tiny ball of bright orange rabbit dubbing at the tail to split the biots and add a tiny hot spot. Also, I point the white biots up.

In Montana, there are many waters open all year but the general opener for everything is the third Saturday in May.
