Thanks again for the thoughtfullness. I answered his question with a
question and a link. The link was to page on Madam X.
How do you think they will work on the Bow?


I live about 120 miles south of Calgary. I don't fish the Bow much, but
last time I was there were used a pattern called Whitlock Hopper which
was a more natural imitation of the hoppers. The explanation was that
the fish see a lot of flies, and go more for the naturals. This was some
time ago. The Whitlock hopper can be seen at

Less heavily fished streams in southern Alberta and southeastern BC are
where I have used the Madam X, and it worked well.
