I checked the TroutFlies.com web page and I think that the logic of
"getting what you pay for" is sound. My panic question is, I roughly
counted almost 100 fly patterns on the list for the "Western Clave
2005". Let's see, 100 patterns times 3 sizes times 6 each = 1800
flies. I guess I won't be able to work much between now and then.
Seriously, is there a more reasonable (pared down) list? Thanks in
advance.

Buy/tie the most important and basics and then buy/tie whatever you
don't have when you get here. Caddis, stones, pheasant tails, zug bugs,
princes, hare's ears, etc etc are essential. Blue spotted ass caddis
emergers in size 19 you can probably do without. ;-)
