Chaunigan Fishing

Hello Everyone

Here are a few of my favourite dry flies to use at Chaunigan.

Adam's Fly:

- One dry fly that is a "must" have in any fly box.

- This fly works for just about any mayfly hatch when you don't have the exact match. Since it resembles a lot of bugs it can work when the fish aren't keying on the current hatch.

- Believed to have originally been a down wing pattern that more closely imitated a caddis (designed by Len Halladay of Michigan in 1922 at the request of his close friend Charles Adams).

- Considered by many anglers to be the best dry fly pattern ever conceived.

- Have had quite a bit of success using this fly on Chaunigan when any type of hatch is happening.

Elk hair Caddis:

- Another one of the best flies you can have in your fly box.

- Quite a remarkable Caddis hatch on Chaunigan most years. Adult imitations work well any time of year caddis are hatching.

- Perfect fly for imitating both the newly emerged caddis flies' take off and the skittering female dropping her eggs under the evening sky.

- Had a fair bit of success with this pattern and definitely worth trying on Chaunigan.


Take care Everyone
