Yellow Breeches, Cumberland Co., 5/1/2016

[Biggie]

Started fishing around 2 PM in the upper reg. section. Not much happening on top. Caught a few on olive caddis puppae and a green weenie. Saw BWO and some sulphers coming off and a few risers to them. Around 4:30 risers picked up a little and I brought a few to hand using a sulpher but had to put some movement on it. Also two white flies (way early) Forgot to add plenty of caddis on top also.

I was there in the same time period, mainly fishing in the run. Managed a couple feisty Browns includIng one on top on an EHC. The others took BH nymphs of varying types. I kept trying to coax one up on various egg patterns from the tying swap just completed. But to no avail. They wanted bugs. Had to leave around 4. Risers were very sporadic. I noticed mainly midges in the air.
