Was there Tuesday afternoon/evening. Was skunked until about 7:30 when I caught a brookie on Blue Dun. Very little action at the time so I went to a Black wooly bugger and caught a decent bow. Believe it not this was the first fish I caught on wooly bugger. Then saw some consistent rises and was able to land another bow and brown on Sulphur dun before it got too dark to tie on any new flies. Had no light on me. Otherwise would have continued.

I haven't found the fish too picky since the hatches haven't been real heavy. Have had good luck with sulphur comparaduns, sulphur parachutes, and rusty spinners. However, I never had to change flies because the fish wouldn't take, so I think any reasonable fly would do OK.

caddis dry for me has been my goto fly... similar to a pattern that Dennis had posted here in the past..

Fished the So.Branch last night. Some sulphurs and Isonychias. The fish were on the Iso's. Also, the brown stones are hatching right now. When nothing is hatching, fish a #8 or 6 brown stone nymph in the fast water/pocket water. I did early on and took a few underneath. Good luck.

Educate me guys. What is an Iso and under what name does it go under in your local fly shop[one of these days, I'll take up fly-tying].

Isonychia bicolor, aka Slate Drake, aka White-Gloved Howdy. Any fly shop will know if you just say Iso. You could also use zug bugs and prince nymphs as a fair imitation for nymphing, Adams for a dry, and Rusty Spinner for spinnerfall.
