I’ve never been this organized with my flies lol

Most flies are size 18-22, with a couple size 16 wet flies and purple haze parachutes. I have more 16, 14 and 12 sizes but they aren’t useful this time of year.

Typical day will be nymphing in AM with zebra midges, then BWO in afternoon once fish start to rise. Emergers are common on the streams but I dont really know how to fish them well and typically swing a wet fly across the tail of the riffle into the pool/run.

Hat has the wooly buggers and squirmy worms, which I don’t often use but like the option.

These are flies I’m comfortable with, but looking to expand my comfort zone.

Will also go to local fly shop for advice if it’s too cold next weekend.

Thank you in advance for your comments, I’ve loved the advice I’ve gotten from this sub in the past!

  1. Pink squirrel nymphs. Stop in at the driftless angler in Viroqua if you have the opportunity. They’re always willing to help and update their online fishing report frequently

    Another suggestion for the pink squirrel. My go-to size is a 14 on a 2488H.

    Scuds can also be productive.
