|
|
| I'm heading up to the chain lakes area of the uintas. I'm going to pack in my fly rod. I'm not a real experienced fly fisherman and am not sure what kind of fly to use. Any suggestions would be helpful. Any other suggestions as to bait would be nice to. Thanks |

| try a royal coachman, royal wulff, adam, or elk hair caddis. i have always caught fish on these four flies. they are a major part of my fly box. you can also use a dropper (if it's legal there) like a pheasant tail, or gold ribbed hare's ear nymph. doubles your chances. |

| I like a mosquito or a black gnat. Renegades also seem to get something interested. I have better luck with a fly and bubble rig on the lakes. |

My all time "old reliable" is the woolly bugger. Different sizes & different colors but I tie up a green black combo that seems to be the one I am tying up most. Easy to fish too. Floating line and just let em sit sometimes. I have much better luck with wet flies. For dry I like the mosquito, humpy, caddis.
Sounds like fun. |
