This time of year always has me thinking of the coming trout season, Wahey!!
Well with these thoughts always comes a good look at the remnants, often tattered remnants at that of last years flies.
As the rivers are a bit full of water I decided to spend some time addressing the situation. Having never bothered before I decided to write a list of just a basic fly box that would be useful over the coming season. You know the sort of thing a few klinks some adams, a few CDC and Elk and assorted nymphs and bugs. Probably two sizes of each with a few colour variants and all of a sudden I have a list of about six hundred flies to tie. That is including all the nymphs I think it would be nice to have in the box.
Should keep me busy until the season starts again.
Best I stop procrastinating here and get tying.
