No warm water up there

[Joe Hyde]

In two weeks I'll be in southeast Wyoming (Medicine Bow National Forest) for a week of camping and fly fishing. At the camping area there's a river holding lots of trout, or so I'm told.

I'm taking only one fly box, and it's barely larger than a pack of cigarettes. Inside it right now are 10 parachute Adams flies I bought specially for this trip. Other than those PA's, I thought I'd use just the flies already in the box; namely, basic panfish patterns with an emphasis on nymphs.

But I'm wondering if I ought to expand my arsenal a tiny bit more. Have any panfish flies scored well for you guys during your mountain stream trout fishing vacations?

Grasshoppers and ants! Don't go without them.

Thanks LadyFisher,


There's some 'hoppers rat-holed amongst my gear, I'll cabbage around in there and grab a few. A 'hopper probably looks like Thanksgiving Dinner to a trout, huh?

I have ants, too...they're in my pants; I want to leave for Wyoming NOW!
