I wanna bitch about the black caddis or "black dancer" fucking flies and their mating swarms.
these damn caddis come out in force, all over the water in the best shelter and feeding channels. Theyre fucking like rabbits and the trout love it.
The day before you could be as infallible as the goddamn pope, dead drifting a fucking cotton ball and landing wonderful fish, but once these bastards are out its all over.
the trout gobble em up like candy, and take baitfish coming for the fun too. but nothing I ever present, weather it be biologically accurate black caddis, baitfish, or old standby streamers and nymphs, they want none of it. Nothing. Just the fucking black caddis.
Any ideas? Someone once suggested "mating pairs" but i've never encountered a pattern for that.
