    Default Au Sable

    I want to send someone a few flies and they mention they fish the Au Sable from time to time. What would you suggest I send by way of dry fly or nymph?

    Thanks in advance.

    How about Fran Betters' Ausable Wulff's?

    Is this the Au Sable in Michigan or the Au Sable in New York? The answers you have so far represent one from both areas.
    I can think of few acts more selfish than refusing a vaccination.

    Thanks for the replies everyone. The Au Sable in question is in New York. Byron, Fran Betters Ausable Wulff will work. Jack, I have quite a few BWO's already tied so that will work out great.

    Thanks again everyone; one of the reasons I love this site is the people who are willing to share.

    I forgot to mention that the local fly shop owner, Tom, is very helpful too about local conditions and recommended flies
