If I tie 60 flies before I come, what should I tie? Should I bring any of my home water flies as well? Thanks,Ted
Ted,
an early Happy Birthday, .....great gift! Do not leave your home water flies home. Bring them, especially the small caddis and BWO's. Here's a couple of links that indicate hatches which usually occur that time of year. The one says Esopus Creek Hatch Chart but the time(s) are very similar and the bugs are definitely the same. We have plenty of smaller flies here, caddis, sulphurs, BWO's.....

Here's a link to another pretty good water report.
