tidbit 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2008 Group, Teeny nymph: fish it on the bottom and let it drift. Chili Pepper: First fly out and my "go to" bug. Golden Squirrel (aka Royce Dam). This streamer is way under-rated. I have fished it: it gets results. White Wulff BWO-parachute--a good choice about everywhere. Simple and they all work. You can pick and choose sizes as needed in your area. tid Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
