another day of summer

Hi folks, Guided on the Lamoille yesterday afternoon with aspiring fly anglers.  Another stellar weather day with record high air temperatures.  Afternoon clouds did help and kept the big sun off the water.  Water temperature was 64 degrees and the level was just below the seasonal average.  Saw a lot of #16 green bodied caddis larva on rocks and some hatching #12/#14 isonychia.  A few rising trout but nothing with any regularity.  We blind fished a #14 green grasshopper and a #12 Hare's Ear parachute. We missed several fish that aggressively rose to eat the hopper.  We did land a 3 little guys that were learning to eat at any early age and hooked a decent rainbow on a Isonychia nymph that let go on a country club release.  The trout fishing on the main stem of the Lamoille has been okay.  Certainly a product of the hot summer with low water.  I will be focusing my efforts on tributaries of the Lamoille where the fishing seems to be more consistent and the densities of wild fish greater.  Nice weather change with a big cold front arriving and cold nights on the way.  Remember to clean your gear and keep the non-nativre species at home.  Have Fun, Willy
