Ritt’s Fighting Crayfish by Al Ritt
In all likelihood, the debate began soon after the creation of the second fly. It’s human nature to make lists, and we rank everything from influential world leaders to sports bloopers.

March Brown Nymph
A May/June staple hatch on any eastern stream, especially in the catskill region.

As the time got closer, we both monitored the weather channel to see how the fishing conditions would work out. On Sunday evening, as we confirmed our start time, the forecast was calling for frigid temperatures and a light wintry mix on Monday afternoon. Larry had plenty of winter gear and the prospect of some cold weather did not bother him at all.
Adult Mayfly Identification by Roger Rohrbeck

These features can be used to identify a winged mayfly as to dun or spinner. They can identify it as to male or [...]
