Kochanut you fish some tiny stuff!!
MMaarrkk there are a lot of flies that will work well on the provo. my favorites are 18 copper/black zebra,14 larva lace caddis chartreuse,14-18 sow bugs,12 golden stone

I'm not knocking tiny flies, they do work. I would spend hours on the bank just trying to find the eye of a 28. Mmaarrkk I suspect is a begginer,from his question, and would struggle to get fish in on that tiny of flies.
