Trout Dry Flies
A low-riding caddis that doubles as an emerging mayfly. A staple slow water dry fly. Another classic California pattern, make sure you always have a few in your box all summer long.
A soft landing golden stone that doubles as an October caddis in the fall. One of my top-producing summer/fall dry flies, when a Chubby isn't getting it done, strap on a Clark's Stone and those wary trout will eat.
Don't go anywhere in the West in June without a pocketful of PMD spinners. We like this pattern because it's easy to see and finicky fish eat it.
