Fred,

We were discussing this the other day. I believe there are pattern suggestions on the second page o fthis thread.

Anything white from a white wulff to a large cahill to a white popper.

Wets are good hung under the dry for the larger fish.

Going to the river?????

Maurice:
I'm OK with the dry and wet patterns but I should have sais nymph. I was looking for one I could try up at the Breeches. I have never seen a pattern for the nymph. I tie a spent wing parachute for the dry - looks like a coffin fly with white wings. Has worked really well when the fish are up on the surface.

i ve never tied a white fly nymph before but i have heard that if you are going to tie them to fish right before a hatch then you should make the thorax of the fly a light pink color
