I have such good luck with that fly but seldom see other people using it. Just curious if many keep a supply in their box.
Do many of you use the Renegade

I think it's an excellent dry fly
attractor especially in smaller size's
just like the bivisible. With hackle
fore and aft they float great and
you have to like a fly with peacock
herl. Good choice I would say.

I have fished the renegade quite a bit, although not so much the past couple years just because of the kind of fishing I have been doing. It is an easy fly to tie, reasonably durable, and very effective. And it can be fished just about anyway you want to fish it - dry, wet, on the swing. I do have a small number of Renegades in my dry fly box as a matter of course.

The fish are always right.
I always have some renegades in my fly box. I fish them most often when there is no hatch. They are easy to see and can fished dead drift or twitched and will work as a wet fly.
I can think of few acts more selfish than refusing a vaccination.
I have a few and use them at times, they work great.

Holy Crap! Have you fished Henry's Lake? That is a must fly. I use variations everywhere!
well, let's see, I would say that about 60% of my dry fly fishing takes place with a renegade. It works amazingly well for sippers a few inches off the bank at the Deschutes...never mind, I've said too much...
here's one such fish from last spring:

There is a Renegade here on FAOL as Fly of the Week (FOTW) I think it is by the Beatty's...with a note that Al and Gretchen say it is their favorite fly.
The Renegade and it's cousin the bear paw are two of my favorite dry flies.
Trout don't speak Latin.
Where can i find the bear paw? And I did make some renegades for this season to try.
