something around the length of a 4xl #10
streamer hook for a reasonable imitation, and many naturals run bigger.



Reading that size spec I thought " sounds like a burrower" and dug out my
books and that seems to be the case. It sounds a lot more like fishing
our Brown Drakes and Hexs ( both also burrowers with the action at dark )
than our Green Drakes.

Hopefully you understand how lucky you are that your past last light spinner
fall is of a huge WHITE bug ... G

speaking of makela...anybody heard from/of him? will he be at penns this
year?

yes, and yes.
And, I guess this year's lesson will be lobbing coffin flies among the
bats, and how to stretch the evening rise into the morning hours(and still
be fishing coffin flies).

I'm planning on sitting in a lawn chair, drinking beer and just watching you
fish my friend!

unless you fall victim to one of your pre-Penn's freak injuries, we intend
to get you out of said chair(at least for a while).
