When you can sit down to the vise, tie up two identical dry flies,

tippet, then walk down to the stream at precisely the right time
KNOWING that you'll catch as many fish as you care to, that's a
minmalist approach. Of course, if you live right on the stream you
know the flies of the season and have naturals to copy just by
picking them off the screen door. It's quite a bit harder for the
"weekend warrior" who has to travel to the stream.


Almost qualified then -- knew which fly would work but I took an
"experiment" along with me too. Damn, have to do better next time . .

Damn, I miss Montana.


Can't help you there.
