I was fishing one of my favorite creeks on Monday and catching some fish on a size 20 BWO during the afternoon hours. About 4PM the BWO's seemed to disappear but I still came upon a pod of rising fish. I fished over them with BWO, then GN and finally a size 24 midge a guy taught me to tie all to no avail. When I finally decided the fish had beat me, I seined the water and found a ton of black midges in the film. I took some home in my seine and when I got them home I put hooks beside them until I found the right size which was a 30. They may be 28's because they were dried up by the time I got them home, so I tied up both 28's and 30's and hope to try them tomorrow during the springlike 60's we are supposed to have around here. I know I won't be able to see these darn things so I planned to fish it like a dry dropper only in the film. Good approach? Any offered suggestions for tips on fishing these small babies?
