Ecdyonurus Spinners Revisited

Wine red and couple od shades of pink, for fishing just before dark... I prefer extended body flies without the polypropylene wing throughout the day, unless tied for dusk fishing.

Mayfly Gnats Revisited

Mayfly Gnats revisited... Didn't have best of luck with Gamakatsu R10-B hooks, since they get opened by strong fish easy (and many weren't large, but 100% wild!) These are tied on Firehole Sticks 413 hooks.

Driftless Photo Essay #2

 
For the past four days I had a great time visiting my old haunts in the Driftless area. The creeks were in a great shape and I was enjoying fishing dry flies over spooky wild browns during the hottest time of the day, by stalking individual risers.
