nightfish 0 Report post Posted June 6, 2005 My go-to flies when nothing's hatching are stimulators, but there's several that serve the same purpose, like wulffs, trudes & humpies. For summertime, I always start with a beetle. While not technically an attractor, they're a food source that fish see all day, especially on windy days.

JasonN 0 Report post Posted June 6, 2005 I've gotta go with the Royal Wulff too. It just outproduces everything else. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
siestafred 0 Report post Posted June 7, 2005 Klinkhamers in spring/early summer. Then Stimulators later. This is my try at making a Klink look like an emerging Hendrickson Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lance Kekel 0 Report post Posted June 7, 2005 Stimulators have grown in favor quite abit over the past few years BUT the bivisibles are still my favorite summer attractor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trout are dumb. "And while we fret over details of tails and wing profile and thorax color, we cheerfully ignore the big non-sequitur: that a fish will look at two artificial flies and discern differences a diamond grader wouldn't see, and then, twenty seconds later, pass up a real bug to eat a patently bogus one with a curved hunk of steel hanging out of its butt and a piece of plastic string tied to its snoot." ~ Art Scheck Cheers, CD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sjo Crapels 0 Report post Posted June 7, 2005 Compara Dun, natural colors, sizes 12 and 14. Tough fly, floating low, very good visability, easy to tie, takes a lot off abuse. My alltime favourite. Sjo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
