MICROMANAGING MINUTIAE-OVERCOMING TINY FLY PHOBIA

December 20, 2022 By Matthew Supinski

Midges and Scuds are tiny minutiae extremely important in winter. These are a trout's daily bread and butter.

( Though many of us love to fish dries and swinging wets, Midges and micro crustaceans are a trout's bread and butter in the benthic bio drift in winter as pictured above. Thus entailing nymphing either traditional or Euro style. Though we tend to confuse midge larvae color with adults' coloration … [Read more...] about MICROMANAGING MINUTIAE-OVERCOMING TINY FLY PHOBIA

Dances with Tricos-The White Curse Demystified

July 8, 2022 By Matthew Supinski

Tricorythodes are the smallest mayflies on the planet. But in a given morning a selective brown, rainbow or brook trout can conume up to a thousand spinners for a very full belly on a daily basis for up to 4 months- a true super hatch!!

If you are a summertime trout stream fly fisher you will know the scenario about to be described all too well. You get to the stream armed with your favorite hopper or ant pattern. Or maybe a Sulphur/ BWO emerger on a big icy cold tailwater. And as you walk the banks you see little white clouds of … [Read more...] about Dances with Tricos-The White Curse Demystified

July 25, 2021 By Matthew Supinski

Big Browns love Hoppers

( Cover image- A gorgeous brown that engulphed a Morrish hopper on a stunning Wyoming spring creek in the blistering heat for hopper mad Greg Senyo) Many trout anglers look at the dog days of summer with disdain.

Why We Dry Fly-The DNA of Fly Fishing

May 17, 2021 By Matthew Supinski

The dry fly is to fly fishing what the ten commandments are to the bible. It is a religion , a lifestyle and obsession for those fly fishers that have embraced the deeper Zen and karma of our art and craft.
