mikechell 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2019 Holy moly, Cream. That looks like a complicated pattern. I hope the fish that eats that lays golden eggs ... oh, wait ... that's a goose. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you'll like it i never fished the williams fork when i lived in colorado but maybe someday It's a nice fun tailwater below the Williams Fork dam. About a 20 minute hike to get in and out. The only downside is it's ground zero for mosquitos. Hope you get a chance to fish it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MuskyFlyGuy 0 Report post Posted July 26, 2019 Thanks to Caloosa for posting a terrific looking fly and sending me a SBS. I had materials on hand and was able to tie two: one a 4/0 and the other a 6/0. I am looking forward to trying them. Then I started to over think it and did a 5/0 streamer hook I will try one tonight on the same style of hook I first used. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike West 0 Report post Posted July 26, 2019 Flytire, The black grizzly & peacock grizzly...Were some of my favorite trout flies for years and years. Sometimes I would tie them with an orange tail I still prefer them over a Woolley Bugger.. Nice examples. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lesg 0 Report post Posted July 26, 2019 Flytire, fine examples of an old standby that still produces a lot of trout. I personally think it will out fish most patterns for brook trout in this area. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
