Also, just for those who may be curious, a recent trip to the gunpowder proved quite rewarding for those seeking for technical dry fly fishing. While we didn't catch the 18incher recently posted on the backwaterangler web page, we caught a number of trout in the 5-11 inch range that were beautiful as ever. The reward was simply getting a tight line after successful presentations (mandatory reach casts and downstream presented sulphurs in sizes 16-18). The hatch peaked from about 2:30 to 5:30 but wasn't incredibly thick. Trout were keying on sulphurs and egg laying caddis skittering across the top to their doom in the flat water immediately following decent riffle water (made more stretch and York road access). One the hatch died down, swinging partridge and orange and sulphur soft hackles worked as well with one tiny shot 18" above the first fly. Tight lines everyone!
