Interesting, every single suggestion mentions a woolly bugger...hummm must be something to them.
I will say, I rarely use them, but they have their place. As far as WB, I use Crystal White, Midnight Fire, Hot Chocolate, and a Pale Pink all in #10 & #12. Don't forget Crystal Killers too, which are WB with Pheasant tail for the tail.
My stillwater box is way different than my river, but a few are the same just different sizes. Like Elk Hair Caddis, Adams, Hoppers. Nymphs would be definitely RENEGADE and HARESEARS add to that Copper Johns in red, PT in flash back and non, Prince Nymphs.
Chironomids would also include Zebra's.
River special flies would also add Quiggly Cripple, and WD40's and Rainbow Warrior.
Bacon and eggs are a good bet also (SJW and Glow bugs)
