This fly is for fishing the often overlooked hatch of the “little guys.” Trico spinners fall to the water’s surface in great numbers that the trout selectively feed on. As it takes a lot of Tricos to make a meal, trout often rise repetitively and frequently to these tiny Mayflies. Accurate fly placement, a drag free drift, and fine tippets are essential to avoid frustration when fishing this spinner fall. Indeed, “Mid-morning madness” can utterly possess the fishless angler who is trying his hardest. Meanwhile, the water is carpeted with bugs and the fish are slurping loudly… Tied on a Daiichi 1190 barbless, or a Daiichi 1180 barbed, chemically sharpened dry fly hook.
