The giant Salmonflies of the Western mountains are legendary for their proclivity to elicit consistent dry-fly action and ferocious strikes.
Spectrumized dubbing on the hennie?
I was in the Catskills last weekend and picked up a Blue Quill!
Lets hope for some warmer weather.
What a revelation! It makes so much sense and confuses me at the same time.How do all these other flies work if they don't match the underside of the mayfly?

Datus just rolled over in his grave. :)
That being said I am in the process of obsessing over the color of my sulphur spinners.

I got bored after 45 minutes and quit. I'm experiencing some kind of lack of interest in fly fishing this year. I used to get all excited about putting my gear in order, cleaning lines, and loading my vest. I had to force myself to do it all yesterday and am hoping when I get on the West Branch in late April and see fish working it will rekindle my spirit.
"What do I have to look forward to now" he told me, "I caught 30inch browns in the Delaware on more than a few occasions, I can take fish anywhere, anytime, what thrill is there left?"
My surgeon told me to be patient. He said you are 70 years old and had major surgery just a little more than three months ago. He said it takes most people six months to fully recover and regain the pre-surgery strength and stamina.
