So the season is over but just got myself a new flybox. The plan is to concentrate on these rivers next season, was just wondering wot to fill my box with. Targeting browns. I've started with a few klinks and adams in 14s. Any suggestions wot else. I should try, cheers

Thanks for the replies, not done much river fishing so going to concentrate on the duo. Are 12-16s about right size. Not sure about going over to the dark side and stripping bugg*rs, although I never say never. Would you use these when rivers high/coloured??

only really been fishing rivers for a couple of seasons but i have found,and this is my own opinion is that 12s are a bit big so i tie river flies in 14s,16s,18s, cant see to tie anything smaller
