So, as I've mentioned, I've been putting together a small starter box for a good friend that's been fly-casual for a couple years but his flies are a random mishmash. Here's my desert island-ish box:

#18 parachute BWO
#14 foam ant
#14 parachute sulphur
#14 elk hair & cdc caddis
#10 chubby
#14 parachute Adams
#14 rainbow warrior
#14 egg
#16 Walt's
#14 Frenchie
#12 Pat's

Going in the mail on Monday.

It looks good, but you should add at least a couple buggers before sending it.

He gravitates towards streamers. He's covered in that area 👍

Very nice! I’m thinking carp would like to eat those bugs as well.

Big old diver that I’m hoping to fish in the salt this coming week. No clue if it will work but might be fun.

Craven's Screaming Banshee on an #18 klink

I dunno. I burned a couple off the hook, and this one still isn't great. I kinda think Craven is a dork and a stimmy would more effectively catch fish that would eat this.
