Anybody have any BWO patterns they wish to share?
I have been using very generic patterns, but since I am going to fish this river until it freezes, I figure I should have some good stuff as well.

Dries

emergers

wets

nymphs

spinners

lets see them all.

May flies

Is this what you're looking for?

That's not it Jim,
but that does have cuttie and coho in frog water written all over it.

This is closer.

Well, it has a blue wing and an olive body. BWO!
