Check out the websites of fly fishing dealers like Orvis or Cabela’s. They all sell flies and have pictures on them on their websites. Saltwater flies typically are universal and will work anywhere.

They get painted over. If you don’t poke the eyes out, you can’t attach the line to them.

As the temperature drops, the chances are the fish will be a little lower in the water. What are you fishing rivers or lakes? When it gets colder dries have their uses, but i prefer to go a little sub-surface, that is in both lakes in rivers. I will mainly fish nymphs, in most lakes at this time of year trout will be chasing fry, so an intermediate with a fry type streamer on will work very well, don’t fish them too deep and allow the fish the time to hit the fly and take it, the olive or white woolly bugger is good for this, on a long fluorocarbon leader fished on its own.http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat20431-cat600025&id=0023469320449a&navCount=1&podId=0023469320449&parentId=cat600025&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=IJ&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat601233&hasJS=trueMy favorite method however is nymphs and chironomids, fished in pairs, I really like the PTN and copper johns at this time of year, fished on a sink tip line, like RIOs midge tip lines, this works well for both nymphs and chironomids, the gold ribbed hares ear also works very well at representing all kinds of aquatic creatures. My last fly taht i wouldn be without, in both rivers and lakes is the san jaun worm, fished very slowly with the occasional twitch in the retrieve on a floating line, or if there is some wind a midge tip.http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat20431-cat20530&id=0030347313208a&navCount=5&podId=0030347&parentId=cat20530&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=IJ&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat20530&hasJS=trueCzech nymphing is also a great method, in rivers where there is an un even and rocky bottom, those with a red or orange spot in the centre work very well, then stone fly varianst like the montana in lime and black with a lead under body.http://www.virtualflybox.com/Similar version of midge tiphttp://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat20431-cat601303&id=0036577319176a&navCount=12&podId=0036577&parentId=cat601303&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=IJ&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat601303&hasJS=trueOther flies you might want to try out is a muddler twitched across the surface on a floating line(its worked well for me a few times in the colder months), or if youre fishing deeper water a sinking line with a zonker.http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat20431-cat20441-cat380001&id=0018080310195a&navCount=20&podId=0018080&parentId=cat380001&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=IJ&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat380001&hasJS=trueZonkerhttp://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat20431-cat380001&id=0018080317573a&navCount=26&podId=0018080&parentId=cat380001&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=IJ&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat380001&hasJS=trueDeeper water nymphs, very important when the weather is cold http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/pod/horizontal-pod.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/pod-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat20431-cat20530&rid=&indexId=cat20530&navAction=push&masterpathid=&navCount=29&parentType=index&parentId=cat20530&id=0030356Finally the damsel nymph, this is a versatile pattern you might want to look at, it works well in the summer and in the winter, both times on a floating line.http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat20431-cat600025&id=0023469319824a&navCount=33&podId=0023469319824&parentId=cat600025&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=IJ&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat601233&hasJS=trueThis is the best fluorocarbon line i have found and use it for all subsurface workhttp://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?id=0043719317701a&navCount=37&podId=0043719&parentId=cat600599&masterpathid=&navAction=jump&cmCat=MainCatcat20431-cat20439-cat600599&catalogCode=IJ&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat600599&hasJS=trueThese are two general purpose fly fishing sites you might find usefulhttp://www.hooked-on-flies.com/http://www.freewebs.com/troutandsea/

Stop in a sporting goods store and ask for suggestions. It’s late in the year for flies,there are no natural hatches right now.Try nymphs, and wet fish them.
December 15th, 2010 at 5:22 am
Dry flies will stay on surface when you fish but you have to use a float ant after awhile like Gink or a spray that aids in keeping the fly floating.And wet flies are fished just below the water surface film and imitate flies that have not made it or an early stage of bugs before they are ready to hatch.And for which flies are good for trout is a big range of flies and also for the other fish you are asking about.There is all kinds of info to be read on the web type in flies for trout and many things pop up can type in bass also the same thing many different info will pop up.I guess the key would be to type in popular flies for fish around your area i done that where i live and many things popped up for one to utilize for their next fishing trip.

Second question first; the second fly is referred to as the dropper and the first fly, the point fly, is used as an indicator. With reference to the first question; if your intent is to turn your floating line into a temporary sink tip line, the easiest way to achieve that is to use a very fast or extra fast sinking poly leader, it probably won’t get you as deep in current but it should do and they are readily available from any well stocked fly shop. I do know that Cabela’s carries them. An alternative is to acquire a length of Cortland LC 13 lead core line. Cut a length of it off and put a loop in each end and you are good to go, attach one end of it to your fly line and a three to six foot leader to the other end. Start with three foot length of the LC13 and work your up from there and remember to open your casting loops up if you don’t want it to get ugly. As an aside the 13 refers to the weight of the line in grains/foot. The best solution of all though is to get either a full sinking line or a sink tip.

we like dry flies best… probably use a caddie the most… or sometimes a grasshopper… like what the others have said take some time when you get to the water and look for bugs… better yet bugs with fish surfacing and eating them… some times we’ll fish a hole for a while and get nothing… then we’ll sit there for 10 minutes just watching… then we’ll tie on what we think they’re eating … we crawl on our belly, and cast sitting if we have too to stay hidden… than we cast just up stream of where they’re surfacing… likes to slap the water a bit with our fly when it lands… and let it drifft with the current… BAM works almost every time…

Hi I fish snow fed glacier streams in the Himalayas; himalayan-fly-fishing.com and a must have fly for these conditions and the ones in the green river is a weighted cased caddis pattern fished deep on or near the bottom- Tight lines.
December 17th, 2010 at 4:37 am
Black Weighted #2-4 Wooly Buggers, Poppers, Clouser minnows. Any minnow flies.
December 17th, 2010 at 5:09 pm
If its brownes he’s after, I would recommend,on the point, black and peacock spider,blea and black,coachman,mallard and claret,peter ross and silver butcher.For nympth patterns use pheasant tail,stickfly and shrimp. Middle fly needs to be flashy ie,dunkeld wickhams fancy.Top fly needs to be a bushy fly that you can dibble across the surface waves like red palmer or zulu.In summer a small muddler works wonders.Small single dries will work in late evening.If fishing from the bank dont cast to far,try to fish at 45 deg in front and work your way along the bank.Dont forget to keep the rod up .Brown trout take from below and will not chase a fly like rainbows.As the fish will manly small its best to use light gear no5/6 weight lines a long rod is useful about 10ft it is also long enough to use on a boat. Hope this goes some way to helping you out only wish I could be with him as well.Best of luck and tight lines.

It all depends on the time of year. What type of fly line do you have? What type of flies do you have experience with or want to use, such as nymphs, dry flies, emergers, wet flies, streamers. Are you fishing in a stream or lake? There’s a lot of variables. I suggest that you contact a local fly shop in the area that you want to fish and find out from them. If they’re honest, they will be able to tell you what is really working.
