Almost time. I'm guessing within the next week....
 
Well, the hatch started and will probably be over before the weekend. While talking to someone on the Shenango Sunday night they said the hatch started Saturday, which Bob verified when I visited the shop yesterday afternoon.

I fished it last night from about 6pm until about 10:15. Other than a couple fish in one specific tailout rising somewhat frequently, rises were very sporadic until the drakes started.
I did see a handful of fish launching themselves out of the water........I assume they were chasing emergers by the looks of the rises.. Once the army of bugs started flying rises definitely became much more common but there was still no all out feeding frenzy or anything. I was able to bring a good handful of fish to hand(all on top), and a couple others didn't quite make it to the net. All in all a fun evening on the stream!

As for crowds..........there were two other guys fishin throughout the evening, and one of them left once it got dark.
