I came upon a clearance sale and bought a new fly box, the kind made of
aluminum with the glass covers on one side for dry flies and a foam patch on
the other for nymphs. I took the opportunity to reorganize my flies with
the intention of just getting the flies I use all of the time in this little
box, and sticking the less used flies in a second box (I use a chest pack
that has one main pocket that drops down for a primary fly box and a second
zip up pocket for an additional box).
Anyway, this is how it panned out: One flip up compartment stuffed full
of BHPT sizes 16-20, a second compartment filled with BHGRHE from 12 to 18,
a third filled with parachute flies sizes 14 through 22, the fourth with
traditional Adams style flies 14 -20, another compartment filled with
scuds, and another filled with misc midge larvae. One flip up compartment
is still empty, and on the foam side I have a couple dozen RS2's in various
sizes.
These are the flies I use 90% if the time when fishing local streams.
In the second box I have Prince Nymphs, San Juan worms, some large foam
flies (hoppers, cicadas, stonefly imitations) some Pale morning Dun's, a
flock of Royal Wullf's and some stimulators) and some streamers.
What is in your "most used fly" box?
