ABOUT MY BOX
FIRST CAST FLIES
Trout • Box 3
Dry fly
CHERNOBYL ANT
Sizes:
#4 & #6
Color:
BLACK
One of the greatest attractor patterns, especially in the summer and fall months. This critter floats high and dry mimicking a number of different terrestrials (grasshoppers, beetles, crickets, and others) which trout can’t resist. Fish it alone or as an indicator with a nymph rigged below.

MOP FLY
Sizes:
#10
Color:
CHARTREUSE
This pattern is most effective when fished in high dirty
water. Because of its large profile and slower drift,
opportunistic trout tend to notice this fly. Throw one on
if prospecting a deep slow pool, undercut banks, or
cover.

NYMPH
eGG
Sizes:
#6
Color:
PINK
This one is pretty simple, a pattern that imitates
a fish egg. Eggs are loaded with nutritional value
and an easy meal for trout so it’s no surprise
that this fly works. This is especially true
during spawning season. Keep your drift along the
bottom as long as possible.

eGG
Sizes:

Color:
ORANGE
It's bright orange coloring makes it stand out
from the rest, even in darker murkey waters. This
one is pretty simple, a pattern that imitates a
fish egg. Eggs are loaded with nutritional value
and an easy meal for trout so it’s no surprise
that this fly works. This is especially true
during spawning season. Keep your drift along the
bottom as long as possible.
dRY FLY
HI VIS PARACHUTE ADAMS
Sizes:
#18
Color:
PURPLE
One of the most classic dry fly patterns ever to exist. This
versatile fly imitates mayflies, midges, and even caddis. The
“parachute” allows for great visibility and floatation on the
water. Remember to apply floatant to this fly in order to keep
it high, dry, and irresistible to trout.
NYMPH
Hot spot pheasant tail jig
Sizes:
#14 & #16
Color:
RED
The hot spot pheasant tail jig is perfect for dredging deep
water. The fly features a pink bead, pheasant tail, and mixed
dubbing body. For best results, try jigging this pattern off your
rod tip in deep pools.
