I find your assertion about the starter packs to be most puzzling. You honestly use more dun and ginger than you do brown or grizzly? If so, then the hatches in your area must vary widely from those in the western states, because grizzly and brown (or a combination) are used in considerably more patterns for many more hatches in the areas I fish than either of the colors you mentioned.

If you argued that one really only needs a grizzly neck to start, I might have seen the point but that's another discussion...
