Still the Mountains have some snow but the lowlands are opening up. Rivers still pretty much wadable. Hale Eddy down stream is a little high for wade, as is the Mainstem.

Fly of the Week:  Black Winterstone Fly

Hook: NH-7 Nymph/Hopper 16 2x
Thread: 12/0 Black
Tail: Black Goose biot
Body: Black Ultra wire small
Thorax: Nature Spirit Emergence dubbing Black

It's March and insects may start showing, The Black or Brown Winterstones will be migrating to the banks. I like this pattern as it's not to heavy and will swing nicely to shore.
