There are more hoppers flies out there than there are actual hopper verities and you can carry a few of each if you like but I have opted to carry just three patterns that work well in most situations. There are of course a couple of flies in my dry fly selection such as the elk hair caddis, claret daddy or humpy that fill any perceived gap in my hopper selection.

Have a look at a full list of hoppers locust and crickets featured on this web site:  QUICK LINK

From the above list I choose to carry just these few:

Stimulator

Brown / orange Cream / yellow

Yellow winged hopper

Summertime hopper

Cream Brown
