dusk and dawn

Hi Folks, Been guiding the Lamoille the last couple of days.  Water is pretty low for this time of the year.  Water temperatures are maintaining, but may be not for long. The river has been between 61 and 64 degrees the last two days.  We have some warm days ahead of us and the nights are slowly warming up.  Get your licks in now because the water might be too low and warm to trout fish sooner versus later.  We need sustained rain.  Anyway, the trout fishing at dusk the last few days has been pretty good.  On bright warm days the trout fishing is slow except at dawn and dusk. Dusk can always be good for rising fish yet it can pose issues with too warm of water temperatures on the big rivers.  Lots of #14 caddis hatching the last two days late in the afternoon to dark.  We had 4 trout eat an #14 x-caddis tonight.  There have been a few may flies the last couple of days, but not many.  A few random #10/#12 March Browns duns and spinners and a few of the larger #14 sulphur at dark.  We have been nymphing  heavier water under brighter conditions and fishing dry flies in slower pools at dusk.  A #14 olive wire wiggle dub caddis has been productive as well as the good old #12 and #14  pheasant tail nymph.  I like the spring trout fishing on the larger rivers i.e Lamoille and Winooski in the sense that you get a crack at some larger wild fish and especially on dries.  Problem being that they can warm up too fast.  Off to chase bass all day tomorrow.  Remember to clean your gear and keep the non-native species at home.  Have Fun, Willy
