I know that the size of green drakes varies from stream to stream. I'd like to tie some patterns but I'm not sure what sizes to include. I've seen everything recommended from standard size 10 all the way up to size 4 3x long. Thats a pretty wide range.
Right now the biggest hooks I have are 10s and my hackle is on the small side for that.
Any thoughts? Order bigger hooks and hackle (if I can find it), tie some extended bodies, sell my vise and just buy some drakes at Fly Fishers Paradise? Any advice from the board would be much appreciated. Thanks as always.
