redietz 0 Report post Posted May 26, 2021 I mostly use 14-18, but might go a size or two larger for specific hatches like a March Brown or an October Caddis. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoebop 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2021 It depends on the river and the hatches that are present. In some areas, it might be well known by the locals to have smaller insects in general so try to match the size to the general sizes available that river. Check with your local fly shop as to sizes. My sizes are the same as everyone here has already said. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
