2013 Tying Instructions — $7.99 Recipes for Blue Ribbon Flies 2013 new flies. Upright Trico Spinner, Wired $3 Dip, Pink Lady Comparadun, Nick's Skipper and Improved Callibaetis Nymph -
Improved Callibaetis Nymph — $2.25 Nick Nicklas made this improvement to our old standard. This fly is tied slimmer to better represent the natural Callibaetis nymphs. -
NIck’s Skipper — $2.25 Our senior guide Nick Nicklas came up with this pattern for not only these spruce moth but also for a butterfly he observed trout taking while fishing this hatch. August is definitely the month for spruce moths and they can be found anywhere you have a forested area -
Opal Midge — $2.25 Maybe it is the Opal tinsel body, or CDC wing, or trailing zelon shuck or all of the above but this fly has quickly become a favorite of the entire BRF crew. -
Pink Lady Comparadun — $2.25 This pattern has excellent visibility and floats extremely well in the rough and tumbled waters Epeorus inhabit. -
Upright Trico Spinner — $2.25 Bucky came up with this pattern after observing the number of Trico spinners that remained upright on Hebgen Lake. He has since used this pattern with success on the Henry’s Fork and Bighole rivers. This pattern is easy to tie and easy to see. It can be tied to imitate any number of smaller mayflies by changing the material colors. Baetis, Callibaetis and PMD’s are some of the other patterns that have been used with success. -
Wired $3 Dip — $2.25 Patrick Daigle came up with this version for fishing the shallows of the Madison without the need for additional weight.
