Hatches This Weekend

[BeanOFish]

Myself and a few friends are heading up to a smaller trib this weekend in the Ausable/Rifle region. I was wondering what dries should we make sure have in the box to cover ourselves when we get up there. Thanks.

Sulphers big time. But we did see a massive blizzard of brown caddis in size 14. Wasn't really expecting them but there they were!!!!!!

xcaddis worked great in size 16 all week. Even when the sulphers were heavy. Sometimes the fish will go for something that's the minority on the water because it get's their attention because it is different than most everything around it.

BWO's are always about too.

Don't forget Mahogany's as well;)

You an elk hair caddis and you will not be disappointed. Like said before, even if it is not the predominant hatch, it always catches fish this time of year on the Ausable.

Yep. This past weekend the x-caddis olive and a slate winged olive worked great during other hatches. The fish would key in on it becaue it was different than everything eles during heavy hatches.

Those caddis are really good anywhere almost anytime, but I won't eat em!.:D

[WILDCATWICK]

I just saw a ton of drakes last night on Lake Mecosta. Usually a week later is when I see the full blown hatch after viewed on the lake.

Gotta love this time of year.
