[quote riverdog]Yeah everyone thinks I'm crazy but a size 10 prince will just clean up year round on the Weber and a lot of other places in Utah. I also think it works as a stonefly and salmonfly nymph very well. I'm pretty sure I've read stone and salmonflies have a 2 year cycle in the stream before the hatch so fish are used to seeing them year round.
A couple years back I got into a leading edge of a massive salmonfly hatch on small stream unexpectedly. Landed a good 40-50 fish in an hour all on a size 10 prince as didn't have any salmonflies dries or nymphs with me.
Plus everyone else is using the little nymphs to fish and they get used to that.[/quote]
Dang! you are good. Landing a fish in a smidge over a minute for a solid hour

On a serious note, great info on the Prince Nymph and stonefly association.
