RECOMMENDED FLIES: The Chewy Tui, Balanced Minnows and Leeches in white, olive and bruised as well as Popcorn Beetles and Buggers in olive and midnight cowboy.

Guides Hint:  Only use flies that are tied on 2X-3X heavy wire hooks, or you have a 50/50 chance of straightening out a hook on a 10lb. or larger fish. I have seen this over and over from people buying commercially tied flies on standard wire! The report came from Chris Wharton. I met Chris for the first time last year at Pyramid and he was super helpful in getting my game on. I think you could not do better than getting the same treatment before you try your hand at Pyramid. He even has ladders and custom stands for his clients. -Kent Stillwater Guide Service . . . chris@out4trout.com or 775-851-1558.
