March Fly of the Month- Blue Winged Olive

Blue-winged olives are among the first great hatches of the year in many parts of the country, especially on cloudy and raw days. They are found in moving water and can hatch almost any month of the year. Blue Wings are quite important during the winter months because hardly any other bugs hatch. And trout are very opportunistic so this is a match made in heaven for the dry fly fisher, but don’t dismiss nymphs and emergers.

Tie up six dries, nymphs, or wet flies and bring them to the March chapter meeting. There will be two raffles.
