Fished FFP from 11a-1230pm. Several other folks out. Bluebird sunny skies, very low gin clear water, air temp 82 degrees. Cycled through a couple flies with not much doing the first hour- just some looks. Hit a real riffled area where I saw the grannoms really popping off. Stream really came alive with risers in my section and I was able to pick off 5 quick ones for a quick fix.Here's the pattern I use in #14:

Love it. My experience is if you can find them in some choppy water rising, you can clean up. Very nice bug. EP wing?
 
Get the Trigger Point Fibers in Caddis Gray- Dark for tying Grannoms. You do not need fly floatant as the fly will float all day and is very durable. I tie other Caddis and mayflies using this material. It's excellent stuff 👍

This fly pattern will also work for the size 14 Psilotreta (Dark Blue Sedge) which hatches during the time of the Green Drake hatch.
