I had an odd thing happen last evening. There was no hatch to speak of, but a lot of various bugs around. I tried a few and then started doing pretty well with a spent spinner. But after about an hour I started to have trouble hooking - lots of fish coming to the fly, though. At first I thought it was me - too much slack, timing off, whatever - but it was too consistent. They were clearly refusal rises - sudden, splashy rises but no takes.
I've never had that happen with spinners before. My experience has always been that trout either take them very deliberately or don't take them at all. Anyone have any ideas? I was using comparaduns - maybe they looked like emergers? Maybe a size too big?
