Montana Prince Fly Tying Tutorial

The Montana Prince is a perfect stonefly imitation. With countless color combination possibilities you can match nearly any bug in your local water. The two tone wire body gives a realistic segmented look along with adding weight to the fly which makes it incredibly effective.

I'm in Bend, Oregon and regularly fish the Deschutes (middle/upper) and Crooked Rivers. Purple Adams, Purple Parachute Adams (as we call them 'Purple Haze') are extremely popular this year. They've quickly become a confidence fly for me when I'm not sure what to use. In lakes, I also like to throw a black balanced leech w/ some purple flash, as well as a purple wooly bugger. It seems purple is pretty popular here.

Mr. Dave, would a woven wire body work here or do you think the taper would be wrong? Cheers

Certainly would not hurt anything, just a bit more time invested is all.
