| 7625 sir, one of each please, and I'll Take that Gift Wrapped! Ok, I decided I will get myself really prepped for the spring. I did some research on all the Delaware and Catskill fly shops, I hijacked and cut and pasted Hatch charts etc, to come up with a laundry list of what one needs to be prepared. If you were to have one of each of the following flies in your box in every major style, color, size and stage of life, you would have Seven Thousand Six Hundred and Twenty Five Fly’s. But to be realistic you want to have a dozen of each in the event you catch a selective hatch! That’s 91,500 Were going to need a bigger vest!
