beautiful day, good fly fishing

Hi Folks, Spent the day guiding the Lamoille under blue bird skies with big bright sun..  Not ideal fly fishing conditions, but with water temperatures from 58 degrees in the early am to 62 at dusk, the trout were on.  Really good hatch of #14 green bodied light wing colored caddis in the morning.  We saw #12 March Browns throughout the morning as well.  Not many fish rising early.  We fished with double nymph rigs with and without indicators.  A #12 flashback pheasant tail nymph with a #14 dark caddis pupa was the combo.  Our first 5 trout of the day were 4 12" to 13" wild rainbows that all jumped and 1 10" brook trout.  It was interesting when we moved spots we encountered a pod of fresh stocked rainbows that were easy pickings.  Not nearly as pretty as the wild fish nor as acrobatic.  We took midday off to siesta and went back out late day to find rising fish.  The trout were certainly rising and eating a #14 mayfly.  Had a blue dun colored wing, but not sure exactly what mayfly it was.  Did not matter as we drifted a #14 hare's ear parachute with good success.  Landed several more wild rainbows and missed a few.  The cast and drift were important as the slightest drag in your presentation resulted in a refusal.  Patience in watching the rising fish and only casting when in proper position was key.  No errant casts.  Off to guide another full day and it looks like summer conditions for the next week.  Remember to clean your gear and keep the non-native species at home.  Have Fun, Willy
