I've had a hard time finding many sulfur nymphs on Spring Creek. I have found a few (couple per rock) of the much smaller ones, but not the (around) sz. 14 bugs that should be there in abundance. I've seen more and fewer of them and this is definitely in the 'fewer' category. I don't live on Spring Creek so maybe the regulars can correct me about what I see; what more innocuous factors this may be due to. When I first flyfished Spring in the 90's, the sulfur nymphs were 2-deep covering the bottoms of rocks. In the not-too recent past (I guess, the 90's could be included in this) I have seen seasons of sulfur hatches that were not up-to-par. Maybe this is one of those years? I found some big Gray Fox nymphs, so it might not be pollution/siltation as, I believe they are categorized as being less tolerant than sulfurs.
