I forgot to mention in the earlier blog that we were fishing with Jack’s dry imitations of skwala and mayflies. These photos show why. We saw them on the water. The first is a photo of an Ameletus mayfly dun. It is beautiful in it’s grey color and upright profile.

The second photo is, of course, a female skwala on my wader pant leg. She stayed with us in the boat for most of the trip.

Below is a fish Jack caught while wade fishing during a mayfly hatch. I can’t tell you what fly he was using, it is too obvious.

When you fish the hatch, you will have to match the size.

Jack also caught the brown trout in an earlier post during this hatch. AND with my camera around my neck, I caught one of the biggest fish, another brown trout, right at the end of the hatch. Now that I am learning to set my hook better, it is getting a lot more fun!
