I almost feel like a question about the major spring hatches should be in the OT forum, but here goes.
I have seen such a wide variety of dubbing color selections for some major mayfly species. While I expect that kind of variety with olives, I was more curious what you guys select for your dubbing colors for some of the larger species.
What colors do you prefer for sulphurs? I have seen everything from rusty orange to pink to traditional yellow.
What about march browns? I have seen some pretty dark bugs, but think that their bellies are lighter and tie mine accordingly.
Green Drakes?
I have only ever tied a small batch of green drake duns. I tried lime greenish through creamy yellow. I need to compare against some naturals from the streams I fish for sure.
What about you?
