There was this tiny, size 22 mayfly that came off at dusk, tiny damned perfect little white mayfly. Very cool. I matched it with pure antron and cream spade hackles (or microfibbets?), and caught fish. Anyway, about that time one of the major magazines carried an article about a mystery white fly hatch of PA that was about size 22. I remember the article showing that the fly had these little vestigal front legs that were, apparently, good for nothing. I thought for sure I had discovered my own mystery fly hatch, in Colorado. Either I am mistaken or that article identified this fly as a E. Leukon. Which, I think I have been wrong about the name of this fly ever since. If anyone remembers this story and can confirm, or deny it, I'd be indebted. Your pal, Halfordian Golfer It is impossible to catch and release a wild trout. |
