Any particular fly pattern that would work with these stockers?
I tried caddis flies that are brown like the pellets in their wet,
exploded form but that didn't work either. Nymphs, midges, pan fish
flies...etc nada....


For winter 'bows I have always found that Chironomid patterns (aka
buzzers) fished deep and slow work well. Likewise scuds too. Anything
orange is is a good bet. If you're deperate tie on something orange,
something olive and something black in a team. It's practically
cheating for stockies.
