What fly is the most sold in the US?

[LadyFisher]

I know the answer...but I thought it might be fun for you to post your answer. I'll put up the answer later. You could put your reason up too.

Have fun!

Some year back I would have said a Royal Wulf but today I would have to say a Wolly bugger? Ron

Copper John?

Hey LF,

Interesting question. I can only guess
but I don't recall ever seeing a freshwater
flybox without an assortment of Pheasant
Tail nymphs in an assortment of sizes. Warm
regards, Jim

Parachute Adams?

[Diane]

I can't decide between the Adams, hare's ear, or pheasant tail. I'll say hare's ear. Why? I like the name. I reserve the right to change my mind and edit heavily!

Probably the foam- bodied rubber-legged bluegill spiders. You can find them places that don't sell any other flies.

all leaders tangle; mine are just better at it than most. Jim

I'm gonna have to say the Adams. Specifically size #16.

"If we carry purism to it's logical conclusion, to do it right you'd have to live naked in a cave, hit your trout on the head with rocks, and eat them raw. But, so as not to violate another essential element of the fly-fishing tradition, the rocks would have to be quarried in England and cost $300 each."

Like Jim, I would just be guessing. If not the PTN, then maybe either the Muddler Minnow or the Wooly Worm?

Probably wrong in both cases. What fly catches the eye of fly anglers? Something pretty like a Royal Coachman?
