Thanks, Mike. No, I was just saying that is what I've heard and read in a
couple FF books. I suppose I should have actually fished a hatch to see
if it is true. No more hearsay. I'll fish the hatch next time I see one.
I've seen two caddis hatches, so far. One pretty heavy, one not so. I've
had no luck with dry flies, but have been successful a couple times with
nymphs. I'm going to try a dry/nymph dropper this afternoon. We may have a
hatch, it being a warm semi-overcast day.
