Just to throw this in there , is it the cahill or the sulpher that out west is referred to as the Pale Morning Dun , i knew this at one time , old brains forget.

According to Rick Hafele( entomologist/writer/FFisher), in western streams the 'pale morning dun' is E.excrucians ( formerly E. inermis) it's a small insect in the Family Ephemerellidae and so is the pale evening dun E. dorothea........which he calls a sulphur.
The cahills are in the Family..... Heptageniidae. As you probably know they changed the names in the Genus , and they screwed everyone up, except the guys who don't fish.
I hope I helped, if not blame the entomologists.
