Default Dries for droppers

I don't, (see above), but those who do use big stimulators
in yellow or orange.


(stuff snipped)

Sometimes a #16 PMD accomplishes the same thing. The bobber fly won't
catch as many fish as the itty bitty out at the end of the line.
But it will catch fish, which is something no foam or yarn indicator
has ever accomplished yet.


Hi "Salmo",
Heh . . .heh . . .my best combination lately has been a size 18-22 dry with
a 22-24 dropper. (but of course, I'm out here in the wilderness) Sometimes
have to trash any dropper setup and just go to a 22-24 dry. Must be the
environment I enjoy. (it is a burden)
Starting to goof around with more of the foam patterns, you play with.
BestWishes,

( but I don't rule out those big foamy things out here this time of year,
for indicators . . .and sometimes that has to be the only fly . . .the big
guys don't like the extra stuff attached when they are somewhat persnickety)
