And if so, why not fish the fly that floats the best, that is
easiest for the fisherman to see.



I carry smallish Renegades and fish them fairly often, even on spring
creeks. Usually in a situation where one might be tempted to "ant, or
beetle, the hatch" ... easier to see than an ant or beetle and works for
me .... little rws are good for this too, just much harder to tie G (a
size 20 Royal Wulff is one fly I will buy rather than tie ... even as cheap
as I am :-)
