I fished Laurel Hill the other day and tossed out a lot in my arsenal. I tried W-Bugger, green caterpillar imitation, different color soft hackles, egg patterns, etc. Most of what I tried I've been successful with in the last month.....but not the last time.
The water was the "lowest and slowest" that I've fished which I surmise the trout had much clearer water and a little more time to make their decision of take or not.
Finally, I tied on a size 18 Griffith Gnat and had one riser come very close for a good look. He didn't like what he saw.
So, again, not knowing what they are rising for I've tied up several Griffth's in size 22. In addition to my size 18 & 22 Zebra Midge emergers in black, I'm going to tie up a few in olive and brown.
Any other ideas of "what to use" in these types of situations\conditions?
Thanks!!
