Friday. Dont call me the trout whisperer for nothing

Couple from friday.

Thinking I'm sneaking out of work at noon to try cohocton river today

It usually works that way. It takes the first major hatch which is the hendrickson before they learn to look up . After a few days the water will seem to boil. Hatchery trucks were out last week for the second time . 2 weeks ago I managed a few fish on the dry casting a dry black stonefly and a small tan caddis. I was however fishing a section that is known for natural reproduction. The fish I did catch were small but in perfect condition and color.

Guess that answers that.

Way to go guys. I fish red quill for hendrickson males and light hendrickson for females. Hendricksons are one of a few mayfly that are different color by sex. I recall reading that some say male hendrickson hatch on fast water and females hatch on slow . Not sure that I have observed that myself. Pheasant tails match most of the early mayfly nymphs. .

Why does work have to get in the way of fishing.

Lol looks like you all have it covered.

How was the water?

Depends on the water. How far north and temp it is about thermal hours .

Lucky dogs ..... hendrickson between 1 and 4 PM

I have 4 of the older version with the expanded metal seats. Looked for a new one last year and seen the fabric. Didn't buy because of it . Wife had an older version with fabric seat I replaced after 4 years . Glad we didn't buy more than one .

You know I'm running short on grouse for my soft hackle March browns

Congrats .. my bucket list as well. Would love to do it with a revolver myself .

I have a trough call but its slate. Dont remember who made it . It was nice back in the day but compared to some calls its flat.
