March Brown Nymph

Jeff, I have to agree with you, the March Brown hatch is one of my
favorites. I'd also add that its a pleasure to fish a size 10-12 fly,
it's so much easier to see. I've also had good success with nymphs. I
tie a pattern I got out of the Mid Atlantic fly fishing guide. I'll try
to track down the recipe and post it tomorrow.

I second the 3X comment! Three years back right at dusk on the West
Branch I switched over from little sulphur spinners to a size 10
spinner. I knew I was supposed to cut the leader back to 3x, but for
some reason wanted to save the leader and didn't. Next cast the
biggest trout I saw all year took my fly, ran me into my backing and
kept on going. One more lesson learned to hard way.

I just posted some march brown photos on my blog (http://joshuabergan.blogspot.com). There's a photo of a nymph, emerger, dun and spinner posted there, and I have tons more. Hope they can help.
