Stimulators for the Upper Yak

[Cliff]

Hello, I haven't fished the upper Yakima R. in September for many years. Are orange stimulators still good? And what size should I tie for September & October? I focus on upland hunting after mid-October and don't fish much after that.
Thank you,
Cliff

Try the YakCaddis in Size 6.

A favorite October-caddis pattern, this fly also imitates other caddisflies.

Thanks. At almost $4 a pop you can bet that's one I'd rather tie.

Go for it, there’s a few SBS videos around.

Will do, thanks again.

It wouldn't hurt to have a few Green or Olive colors as Grass Hoppers are still around in Sept and maybe Oct.
