Fished the Little Juniata on Sunday 05/11, sulphur hatch just starting out, along with a few tan caddis around. Walked back on the washed out road under the overpass, and went upstream, nothing on the nymph, but fish began to rise more and more. Ended up catching 5, missing a bunch more, and caught my biggest trout of the year to date, such a tiny rise that I didn't even know I hooked him until I pulled up to backcast. Heres a video of some from that day

Tuesday, 05/13, fished down below the junkyard, caught one nice one and another on the surface, and then the thunderstorms came through right during the primetime, went back to my truck and waited it out, came back down and fished for another half hour with two more to show for it.

Seems to be a prime time window so far from about 730ish until it gets too dark. Unfortunately got a good bit of rain last night, and if we get what they are calling for Thursday, may be a washout for the weekend.
