On the first evening of the Unofficial Jam, Afishinado and I went over to the Little J with the anticipation an evening sulphur hatch. We made an important dinner stop at the Spruce Creek Tavern for some burgers, beers and fries before we started fishing. A great joint to hit if you are in the area.
Weather - it had been and was very warm that evening. Temps were pushing the upper 80's. No rain for a couple of weeks. Sunny all day long
Water - was very clear and dropping to about 250 CFS when we arrived Friday evening. I measured it at ~ 63 degrees
Hatches - the 8:30 sulphur show came on as expected. it lasted about 20 minutes.
Afishinado picked a slower and softer water to fish. I stuck to some faster ripples for the evening. I got into few bringing up many fish in the faster water at about 6:30. It got slow at about 7:30 and then when the sulphur hatch hit we did very well.
