Next week I will be going to Pine creek fishing with my father. After checking the hatch chart, the following flies should be hatching:
march brown
gray fox
green egg sac caddis
sulphers
black stone
brown stone
large caddis
BWO
hendrickson
blue quill
blue dun
quill gordon
When fishing streams with so many species of insects, how to you decide what to target? I will be both fishing dries and nymphs. My intuition says to fish generic nymph patterns that cover a wide variety of species. For dries, is it just trial and error? As for size, do you change patterns before sizing down?
Thanks for all your help!
