Ha! I was ready to say you were off base, but you redeemed yourself with the Woolly Bugger!

Nice video, I'm a beginner with fly fishing, still learning how to cast with a fly rod 😀, nightmare !. I think, this is the best fly guid video I have seen in youtube, thanks.

If we’re talking about top, TOP, all-time patterns…I would actually replace the hopper with a muddler minnow (preferably a smaller one, size 10-16). There is no better water-covering, “looking for fish” streamer on the planet, imo. You can float it like a terrestrial (imitating moths, caddis, hoppers, crickets, everything)…you can dart it just under the water like an escaping baitfish…you can weight it and imitate a sculpin. It represents so many different trout forages, I would go so far as to tie it with the black/grizzly/whatever woolly bugger for “best streamer on planet earth”. I’ve caught more trout on a small muddler minnow than probably any other fly, including the parachute adams (the greatest dry fly pattern on earth, imo). If all you had was a box of muddlers, buggers, hare’s ears and parachute adams, you could catch fish anywhere in the country, no questions asked.

What was the first one that you showed but never included it in your list it looked like a perch, is it a game changer perch varient👍🏻

I saw your Flybrary hook pads and thought it would be nice to set one up on our local trout stream (the Hokendauqua Creek, in Northampton, PA). How can I obtain one of those pads?

Nice, first time seeing you, enjoyed every moment, especially your slightly warped humor (takes one to know one!). Your fly choices are on the money and honest, tired of all the "fly snobs" ...
if it looks like a bug? Good chance it will get hit!

Hey I know this is two years ago but remember your fish tank filters!

Pheasant tail nymph? Surely that has to be on the list if not nearest the top? I suppose the hares ear one is similar? - just found your channel so will be subscribing :-) BTW - I see someone else mentioned checking out @DavieMcPhail - did you check him out - one of the best fly tiers ever 👌👌🎣🎣

Midges? Where are the midges? I don't go anywhere in Colorado without midges size 18-24, midges save the day all the time here.
