It seems spinners are starting to finally fall! The winds decided to (slightly) calm down yesterday morning and evening, and the fish responded. During the day, we saw the same activity that we have been having for the last….well, I forgot it’s been so long. Fish rising between the gusts, and plenty of bugs coming off. The apple caddis are making their way upstream, so we expect to see the fish on the upper main keying in on them in short order.
Those are spent apple green caddis from down by Callicoon. Just a few. Photo by: Jeff White
