Hey All!
I'm going to Sun Lakes state park this weekend with some friends to go fishing. I was wondering if any of you know which lake in the park I should fish and what to use.
Thanks!

Is it any good? Or should i put it in the trash?

The only reason they are gone from stores is because women are buying them. When they start slowing down production of the feathers, they should appear in fly stores.

Hey everybody!
I'm headed to lake chelan in Washington. I'm going fly fishing but i'm not surer what flies will be effective. It has Kokanee and Bass. Any Ideas?

I would add Griffiths Gnat, Royal Wulff,Prince nymphs, and Blue Wing olives.
What are Blue wing olives?

if you're looking at "put and take" stocked fisheries, keep it simple when starting out. A white marabou streamer with a tinsel body and a red hackle-barb tail will work as well as a royal coachman. A few yellow and orange egg flies will work when the streamer doesn't. Rainbows seem to like a bit of red too.
My all time favorite trout flies are simple woolly worms- not buggers. Easier to tie due to the very short yarn tail. Now I tie them with ice-dub bodies instead of chenille, but I don't catch any more fish compared to the chenille body ones. Tie them on 3xl hooks in size 12 to about 8 or even 6. Red tail, black, olive, yellow, or white body with grizzly hackle sized appropriately. I've caught trout from Maine to Pennsylvania to Alaska to Nevada and all points between on those. I've caught trout on those in high pressure areas during mayfly hatches when other people were killing themselves trying to be perfect. They just flat WORK. I don't go trout fishing without a box full of them. They are easy to tie so I am not hesitant to cast them into places with lots of snags- and lots of fish. I don't cry when I lose one (or six) because they are simple and quick. If you want to get fancy, a woolly worm with a peacock herl body can be a real killer.
Wow. That really helps. Thank you!

Please post your favorite/most productive trout flies (with instructions) here. It would really help.
Thanks!!

Well, i live near Seattle. Also, I will be going fishing for rainbow trout. Does that help? And the nearest Cabelas is a 1.5 hour drive. I already can tie the Elk hair Caddis, Wooly Bugger, Adams parachute, and a few others. Are there anymore really important flies i need to catch rainbows?

Hello Everybody!

Thanks!
