heading up to the cabin this weekend. looking to fish kettle near cross fork. just wondering what you guys think will be the best bet for fly selection. drakes? sulfurs?

Last night here on upper Pine in Galeton there were tons of coffin flies on the church parking lot a couple hundred yards from the creek.

I'm also considering heading to cabin on Kettle Creek this weekend. Any word on what the drake hatch is looking like?

I was in the area last weekend, and spent the evenings on Pine, between Gaines and Ansonia. Good number of bugs each night, and plenty of risers but it was a mixed bag of bugs and different fish were keying on different bugs. Sulphurs were the most prevalent, so that’s what I fished. There were MB’s and a few GD’s though too.

I'd assume things were probably pretty similar on Kettle in the Cross Fork stretch. I'd probably expect less Sulphurs and MB's and more GD's this coming weekend as compared to last weekend, but only one way to find out for sure.

The drakes ought to be pretty heavy on Kettle by now if you were seeing a few rogues last weekend, Swattie.

Kettle was the first place I ever fished the drakes. Loved it. Pine as well!
