Your humble mods need to get out fishing too and so we hit Breeches yesterday having a great time.
WEATHER: Overcast turning partly sunny with mild air temps.
WATER: Clear, about 150cfs, 41 degrees. Some anglers out and about, but I'd describe pressure as light for such nice weather on a weekend. No significant hatch activity but we did find a group of sipping fish in some flat water. They were probably taking emerging midges - there were some clouds of midges here and there - large and dark colored. I expected to see some early stones, but didn't.
Overall, the trout cooperated with probably two dozen fish coming to hand between the three of us and a fair number more were hooked. Afishinado caught the most, as usual. Most were small wild BTs but several good sized stockies showed up to play and I got a nicely colored 16" BT. Many wild BTs in the riffles - no need to fish deep.
All fish caught fell for small nymphs fished dead drift. A great day to be out.
