Hatches on the Fall have resumed their intensity

The Fly Shop
Hatches on the Fall have resumed their intensity, although the Hex is about done. You can still find some coming off some evenings pretty well, but some maybe not. Weeds are really filling in this year above the Island Rd bridge, be courteous as the open water is becoming compressed. Callibaetis, Trico and some PMD spinners are what to expect in the mornings followed by the hatches during mid day. The Water Boatmen are super abundant this year, fish your favorite pattern like Tim's or Theo's Boatman with an I-Line and swing them in the deeper holes on the river when you aren't chasing heads. Scuds, leeches and damsel leech patterns can also be your friend this time of year. Towards evening get ready for the Caddis.
Hot Flies: TB Drowned Rusty Spinner, PMD's, Norman's Wiggletails, Pheasant Tails, Mercer's Missing Link, Zug Bugs, and Leeches.
