Below is a good post by Brother Rich. That is under the thread : Flyfishing for the beginner. I copied and pasted here for you to get a starter list of basic flies !




Money flies for trout, no matter where you are in the country, include:

bead head pheasant tail
bead head hares ear
bead head copper john
bead head zebra midge
bead head buggers (brwn, olive, black, maroon)

There are some more, but with those few, you will catch trout no matter where you go. Doesn't matter what time of year either, they will work. Use a strike indicator varied to the depth of the water you are fishing....make sure your flies are bumping the bottom. Use splitshot 6" up from your first fly, enough to get you to "bump the bottom". Tie a second fly 12" down from your first, right off of your first flies hook bend. That simple set-up will catch you fish all day long. If you are fishing buggers, just tie one on and cast it out there.....vary your retrieve, the fish will let you know what they are liking that day. Could go on and on, but this simple info will get you on fish QUICK!!! Good luck!
