Gentlemen--
I've been talked into a trip to the east side the first week of April. We'll be staying in the Sun Lakes area for a couple of nights and fishing will pretty much be limited to small boats, pontoons and on foot.
I'm looking for any fly help. I know of the usual suspects: chironomids, buggers, leeches, and the traditional flies. But I haven't fly fished in this area for about 20 years. Is there some secret weapon I must have?
I need to start tying now to be ready in time.
What would you pack? Sizes? Colors?
Thanks,
Keith

Go fish the big cutts in Lanore with streamers and chronomids in you tube/pontoon. Then Dry Falls Lake is a great float tube or pontoon lake. Try chronomids, streamers, damselflys and other classic lake flies for big rainbows.
