Hey John, you catching any fish? I also hope to get up your way (Green Hills) this fall.

Is it not an art to deceive a trout with an artificial fly? A trout! that is more sharp-sighted than any hawk . . . and more watchful and timorous than your high-mettled merlin is bold!

All winter long I look forward to the first cast of the season.
My favorite hatch is what ever is hatching the first chance I can get out on on a stream at the start of the season.
Early March mid afternoon my early season box has Taeniopteryx, Strophopteryx, Epeorus and Apatania nymphs; along with nondescript but varying streamers.
Then after I'm chilled to the core I look forward to returning to my camper and toasting the hatch with hot buttered rum.

Lightly on the dimpling eddy fling;
the hypocritic fly's unruffled wing.

Over here, wherever one can find a stream not inhabited by anadromous fish, usually above a dam or other barrier we get some beautiful hatches of Green Drakes, both Dodsi and Coloradensis. They run large. about 10's and 8's. If they are coming off the riffles and one has the right fly it can be heaven. If they're not and one has a large, buggy green nymph, then it's about the next best thing.

Regards,
JMarcus

"anadromous"

What a cool word. Well done, JMarcus.
