DrVette 0 Report post Posted May 5, 2008 The only fly i ever do this big is a hopper type thing. If that will suit i will stay in, if not please remove my name. I am not even sure i have that many larger hooks so will probably have to buy some. And technically i am East of the Rockies, on the Eastern foothills.
