Your Opinion -What are your "go to" Utah flies?

[Fleigenbinder]

Fishing a river or stillwater in Utah, what are your "go to" flies?

Please list if you fish river or stillwater and then you First, Second and Third go to fly.
We will assume there is nothing hatching.

I would really appreciate your opinion

And if you want to add more detail, list your top ten flies.

Thanks
Fenwick Fleigenbinder

We've had a few of these threads in the past.

Mine are:
Streams - elk hair caddis, humpy, pheasant tail, royal wulff, adams, madam x hopper, stimulator, elk hair caddis, wolly bugger, elk hair caddis. Did I say elk hair caddis?

Still water - mohair leech, wolly bugger, crystal bugger, elk hair caddis, parachute adams.

Everyone is going to have a "SPECIAL" fly they feel very confident in and confidence is 3/4 of the battle.
But Gary pretty much took in all the basics- if you can't catch fish on those flies then you better look to your presentation as being the problem.

Provo = 26 bead head hairs ear or pheasant tail.... #1 provo fly for me, from a 20 down to a 28 Barrs emerger, has got to be a bead head.

Weber = 18 to 26 Red Copper John, with a Silver'ish meets green (close to a lightning bug but not quiet) fly i tie, 18 to 22

Green = Zebra midges 20 to 24 with a copper john dropper 24 to 26

Logan = Several colored copper johns, from 16 to 30's with a bead head dropper in 24

Black smith fork = same as the logan, but only red copper johns

Ogden, same as the weber, but i lose the silver'ish thing and replace it with a tiny soft hackle non-bead head

Lakes = streamers all the way, kinda to many to list except The Berry where i fish wind shawdows on midge patterns..... sounds weird but trust me it works lol.... as far as other lakes its streamers all the way, kinda depends on the water the day i fish.

You must have great eyesight, at my age I cant hardly see much less tie on and fish with anything less than a 24 or 26. Do you eat a lot of carrots or use a magnifying glass?
