Lighten up, emo-kid.

Sorry rugg, I didn't mean to infringe on your right to grab a cog in public. I guess I'm not very politically correct or sensitive enough to your type.

Don't bring your shit into my thread assclowns.

This thread is about my fecked up face and fishing.

Usually what I do is fish about 1/4 mile ahead of the hatch. I still gets lots of fish, but I avoid the swarm that gets in my ears nose and mouth. Caddis taste like crap.

Fishing in the middle of such a hatch can just be a frustrating waste of time. You are competing with too much real food for the trout. Your technique gets you to where the fish are seeing the initial hatch of bugs, but not a rolling conveyer belt that is wall to wall insects. My little fly is a blackish olive in color with an upright wing of dark grey snowshoe rabbit foot hair. They will float all day, but the body hangs in the water.
Fish jump on them just like the real thing, when the black caddis are emerging.

You think that suits a mountain man with a muzzleloader?

Go stand in the corner.

I'm thinking about the old style all brass scopes. Fixed power. 4x should be fine.

Our big hatch is Brachycentrus. So, any black caddis works pretty good. I usually just tie up a black elk hair caddis. We're suppose to have 150 different kinds of caddis in the Arkansas. Seems like a lot.

our caddis equivalent is B. Numerosus, I forget exactly what species you guys get. The adults are black,
the pupae are dirty olive, hatching from little 4 sided brown cases you can find plastered all over the rocks.
Black caddis(elk hair or other) work for the adults here, but far more fish take the emergers. I think they're easier for them to grab, hanging in the surface film.

You forget what species we get? Maybe my last post will give you a hint.

um, Buzz, that's the genus. Remember, biologist here? Brachycentrus Numerosus is the eastern Grannom Caddis. Look just like yours except ours are far bigger. Some folks use #12 hooks, I prefer #14 usually.
