There is a campsite directly across from the river on the other side of the road for I believe 4 tents, there is an outhouse but no other amenities. I have stayed there, nice just walk across the road and the river is there.

Bruce,I've been wanting to fish the Savage for a little while now. Do you have to use campsites there or is it more like back country camping? I would really prefer to make my own camp somewhere.

- First image is a female green drake dun – Ephemerella guttulata – note the tiny eyes
- Second image – too small, but it appears there are several insects there, particularly a Blue quill spinner – Paraleptophlebia adoptiva – note the white abdomen and red rear near the tail
- Third image is a female sulphur dun – Ephemerella invaria. Note the clutch of eggs she's got at the tip of the abdomen.
- Last image in the dark definitely threw me off - it looks like female coffin fly (green drake spinner) – Ephemerella guttulata. The picture is deceiving and I'm wondering if you have larger hands and that's why the bug doesn't look as large as they normally do. If it were late July I would've guessed it to be a white fly – Ephoron leukon.

Subject: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Upper Savage HatchThis past week I spent a night camping and fishing along the Upper Savage in western Md. Had some great luck with numerous brookies caught on dries and nymphs despite low water.What I found very interesting, though, was the volume and diversity of insects life coming off the water. There seemed a prolific hatch and subsequent spinner falls of what I'm guessing were sulphurs, green drakes, a large grey mayfly, and yellow caddis.Clearly a healthy stream.I'm relatively new to hatch ID and would love it if folks could help me confirm what was coming off. I snapped a few shots (attached) of some of what I found coming off, or later falling back. In fact, around the campfire, at one point long after dark, there were swarms of what I think were sulphur spinners, actually laying orange eggs on the book I was reading. They disappeared at one point and jet-black caddis showed up thereafter.In any case, the fishing was good, but I found the insect activity fascinating. Help confirming what I was seeing would be appreciated.Thanks,Bruce---You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders" group.To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to tidal-potomac-fly-rodders+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com .To post to this group, send email to tidal-potoma...@googlegroups.com .To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/tidal-potomac-fly- .rodders/AEB18CC4-436D-4141- 8D9B-711D8FD81F63%40gmail.com For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout .
