My Top 7 Nymphs

I am currently under the process of rebuilding my trout boxes, changing style and sizes in an effort to avoid purchasing another pack. Going slimline where I can, matching box sizes with their places in the Fishpond Lumbar Guide that I'm currently using, etc. With dries, I just can't get myself to use anything but a compartment box. Therefore not much is changing on that aspect. But the nymph boxes (the largest of them) is all changing. And after organizing the layout, I sat back and reflected on which patterns I would take with me, to every water? Not just the hottest pattern on a given water....which ones would I feel well equipped with, if I had to choose across the entire region?

How Ralph,
3 questions:
are all of those patterns on your site (can't go there I'm at work);
do they have names;
are they all light-colored flies or is it my screen's interpretation?

Valley Caddis, Tactical Caddis, REC, C2C Nymph, Squirrels Nest, BWO Nymph, Green Skittle


Yes Sir, they are all on the site, with video.

The Skittle and Squirrels Nest are darker than the images appear. The REC & Tactical abdomens are Olive.

Thanks Ralph - I found the Fly of the Week.

Couldn't find the Valley Caddis on on your site either, but I did get the recipe from "One Small Trout."
