I'll do a Babine Special that I plan on trying in the Michigan UP in couple of weeks ,I understand that the fish up there respond to large egg patterns :bugeyes: , I beleive that would also make a nice high water fly high water fly. For my low water I will ty a small hex nymph . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sore arm 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2006 chrisfish you are in. I am thinking of pulling the plug on this though due to lack of intrest. I'll give it acouple more days and if I cant get some more people I am going to shut it down. If it shuts down I will post it on here and also pm everybody who said that they were in. Maybe its bad timing but I'll try it again after the hollidays are over and the rivers freeze up. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looking forward to it!! I'll be heading up next week and I'll try out a few patterns to see what works! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Don Stracener 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2006 For high water here we use some pretty big weighted patterns. For low water we use smaller un-weighted patterns. If you want a 6th those are the type of flies I'll put together. You're looking for a total of 12 flies with 6 tiers? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
