Hi Falkirk,

You and others seem to be talking a very loose interpretation of the term "wet fly" so I will take the same liberties. 1. GRHE 2. Nemes-style soft hackles (they're all pretty much the same) 3. Professor 4. Woolly Worm 5. Beadhead GRHE

If you mean traditional wet flies my choice would be: 1. Professor 2. Alexandra 3. Dark Hendrickson 4. Coachman 5. Light or Cream Cahill

I'm sure that others will disagree. 8T

For me it is:

Hare's Ear Flymph
Partridge and Green
Black Spider
Little Olive Flymph
Red Hackle

3) Blue Professor

4) Grizzly King

5) Dark Hendrickson

Good collection so far with variou Hares ear's and various spiders pretty common but keep them coming. Where are the New Zeland an Canadian five? sorry a bit loose with the term wet flys as long as it's not a lure,
