June 18…2019. Mighty Midges.

Went eleven for fourteen this morning…all nice fish to 18″…all bows and one brown…most caught on my PTC nymph home tie.

Beauty of a bow headed for the beach.
All the fish today pulled hard!

Pretty good midge hatch early then tapered off around noon but still had a few good risers at the end until the sun got high and hot. Caught a couple on the O-Leech, too!

My dry/dropper set up…#14 standard Parachute Adams…dropped down 18″ with 4X Rio Powerflex to my PTC (Pheasant Tail Chironomid) nymph home tie #16.
You can see my PTC nymph stuck in this guy’s nose.

It was a very good day!
