Feature Flies

Pat Dorsey’s Mercury series of flies all work better than most. In this pattern he kicks up the venerable Pheasant Tail by the Mercury glass bead and a few other changes.

The WD 50 unweighted can be fished as a BWO nymph in shallow water conditions or as an emerger from top to bottom. A very versitile fly to have in the box.

A soft hackle Caddis Pupa on a jig hook to fish on your tactical nymphing rig.

Mercer’s beautiful small stonefly nymph. Great for yellow sallies.

A proven pattern that works most anywhere. The silver tungsten bead sets this pattern apart from others.

Two Bits (Tungsten Beads) make this fly a true winner for a dropper nymph in a double or triple nymph rig or in a dry/ dropper rig. This is a fantastic Mayfly representation across the board, and works great as a general attractor.

This bright green larva is a tight body pattern that really matches the Brachycentrus larva when it’s tethered out of it’s case. Must have for Spring hatch.

John Barr’s simple but deadly caddis uncased Caddis larva. The first stage of pupation for a Brachycentrus.

A very buggy Caddis Pupa that really implies an emerging Caddis that is hugging the stream bed.

This is a must have for your fly box if you fish freestone rivers like the Arkansas and Roaring Fork.

A bead head Pheasant Tail with an attitude. Show the fish some color.
