Being that I happen to live in what appears to be the exact center of a sea of corn, I have not yet had the oppertunity to fly fish for trout before. since this is the case I spend most of my time tying flies for bass, pike, bluegill and crappie. Trout flies tend to be much neater to look at though, and since stocker trout will be going in my neighborhood lake very soon I decided to tie up a few trout flies. However, being both a dabbler and a creature of habit, I chose to tie up my caddis with the short fine cheek hair of a deer that I shot recently, and dyed with orange koolaid. Do you think the color will work? more importantly, do you think it would work somewhere where they actually have trout?
