Fished McMichaels DHALO today and there was a pretty good hatch of big *** stoneflies all afternoon. I believe Rosenbauer says he's never caught an east coast trout on a stonefly dry.
Today, they were landing all over the water (and me) and skittering all around. I didn't see a single rise, but I also don't have great confidence there are a ton of fish in that section this time of year.
Does anyone have personal experience of fish consistently feeding on stonefly dries as opposed to nymphs? Is Rosenbauer's anecdote apocryphal?
