    Anybody else run into these guys last night? Sully and I were out fishing the league and encountered several areas that were covered with both casings and hatching flies. The flies were huge…2.5-3″ magnums, bright yellow in color. I took one just above my left eye as we were running wide open down the river around 9pm. Ouch!

    The magnums are starting to thin out a bit. Still a few around but not nearly as many as last week.

    Yesterday, the major hatch seemed to be caddis, about a half-inch long, right at dusk, with a bunch of tiny white mayflies mixed in.
