Blue-winged Olives
Baetis

Tiny Baetis mayflies are perhaps the most commonly encountered and imitated by anglers on all American trout streams due to their great abundance, widespread distribution, and trout-friendly emergence habits.

27" brown trout, my largest ever. It was the sub-dominant fish in its pool. After this, I hooked the bigger one, but I couldn't land it.

Trying to get a picture posted here, but Tuesday was a good day. Didn't start fishing till noon as I was staying till dark. Caught several fish, and then a real nice one, all fish came on 14 yellow drake. About 9:00 pm a big caddis hatch, but mine were totally ignored. I'm going to try some different caddis patterns this week. Hope everyone is getting out and enjoying themselves.

Mike.
