yes, to both. Get a few of both styles, in #14 and #16.
Further, get some with orange bodies and grey wings,
others with pale yellow bodies and pale wings(yellow or
pale dun). CDC patterns for either type of sulfur work well, also. Confused?
Wait til you get here, it will get worse!

What size Green Drake [eastern] should I buy?


Massive. The locals tie them, frequently on #10 4xl streamer hooks. I tie
them on #8-12 2xl hooks. The naturals are huge.
