Nice collection of flies, Dennis! I see from your website you are sold out on the Halfpounder book. If anyone wants to sell their copy, I'd be a willing buyer. Thanks.

I’d say for the American you can’t go wrong with swing’n a Lady Caroline this time of year or even year round. Winter, Orange Heron or any Ackroyd in black/0range, black/purple or black/chartreuse. Any winged fly in those colors.

Here is my Fall go to steelhead fly on the Rogue River.
Here is an early October Rogue fish on the above fly.
Great collection of flies. Liked it.
I have done well on the American with a black general practitioner. The long spey style hackle gives it allot of motion in the water. My go to pattern on it.

I tie them almost like this but maybe some longer hackle.
I think a black wooly bugger would probably work just as well. Or better yet an egg sucking leach.
Just liked tying the fancy flies.
