Default I just found one of my fly boxes....

We moved back in December, and there are still stacks of boxes down the
hallway. While looking for a Windows XP Upgrade disc I ran across my box of
trout flies. I haven't even looked at it in ages. (No trout around here.)

Anyway, I gave it a good look over and realized something. I have no clue
when or where to use half those flies. I sure was proud of that box when I
got it though. In fact I think the only fly in it that I really rocked with
was a honey bee pattern that is somewhere up in the top of an oak tree in
Oak Creek Canyon.

I wonder. Is there some kind of general guide to basic patterns that I
might be able to use to figure out the when and where of what I've got?

I've got a couple other boxes of newer bass streamers and bigger poppers. I
know where to use most of those. Streamers and minnow patterns make great
drop shot baits. LOL. Seriously some basic of time of year or region for
the standards would be really cool.
