parachute caddis, peacock caddis, lots of rusty spiners in many sizes, sparkle wing pmd size 16, pmx in variety of colors and sizes, stimulators in many colors and sizes - some with rubber legs, and some chernobyl ants in a variety of colors and sizes.

pmx = parachute madam X. Pretty much a parachute stimulator with rubber legs. It is a common fly in the Rockies and if you google it, you'll find lots of pictures of it.
Just committed to that trip. One week in Yellowstone, YEEHAA! Now I just have to find water. What is a pmx? pmd on steroids?
The "Our Waters" section of the trip planner in my sig has a lot of river information. Richard's book is also primarily an access guide rather than a fishing guide --the stuff on the website complements the book.
I'll be posting some new attractor dries and cripples that worked really well for us last season over the next few months.

Walter's done a very nice job here, lots of flies and info. Blue Ribbon's is great, too. I'd bring lots of caddis.

I'd add a bunch of foam ants and beetles, as well as Copper Johns, caddis larvae and pupae.

Thank you very much Walter. I'll be sure to visit your shop, especially as its on the way from our cabin. Also, my mother was a Wiese.
