I'm gonna hike in Hickory Creek Trail, go downstream and camp/fly fish for about three days. When I've fished there before in October, I've had few takes on dries or nymphs except right after rains stained the river a bit, at which times I've taken a number of bows and browns on woolly worms. Doesn't say much for my stealth or technique, I suppose. Any tips for a relative novice? How heavy a tippet can I get away with? I'm going in well armed with muddlers, hoppers, ants, beetles, adams parachutes and elk hair caddis (what size? hmmm). What else should I offer to leave hanging in the mountain laurel? Any input is greatly appreciated.
