SH flies are my go to sub surface fly on any river (note: pheasant tails too!!)<br /><br />Sulphurs on the Millers: I guess that I do remember them but not like the Swift. I remember Cahills on the Millers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<br /><br />KenMillers River Flyfisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07834066906971183890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5461245170077475695.post-15365879308062895662017-03-13T11:39:06.313-04:002017-03-13T11:39:06.313-04:00Ken that's a great strategy.

The simplicity of drifting and swining a spider is awesome. I need to remember this post in a few months :)<br /><br />Have you seen much for sulphers on the Millers the past few years? Dont know if I just missed it or what. I can remember years ago around Wendell Depot seeing massive hatches of hunter orange colored sulphers (I assume that's what they were)... But I feel like the past 5 years or so, I just havent seen that. Could just be timing... But your post got me curious if you have seen any change there - or if I've just missed it!Hibernationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06209232417170426487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5461245170077475695.post-52322811333720726932017-03-12T19:41:49.584-04:002017-03-12T19:41:49.584-04:00I have that book, Ken!

Not as many fish being it is year round catch and keep, but I can always find a run to fish in that agrees with my idea of fishing solitude, and I connect once in a while.<br /><br />Ken, I am glad I'm not the only one with sulphurs in mind right now. A customer and friend from Pennsylvania is going to show me the ropes on the Yellow Breeches in late May when I am next in that area. They have good sulphur hatches there and I have been tying flies with that in mind. <br /><br />A nice outing to think about on this cold March night with the impending Nor'easter on Tuesday.<br /><br />Sam<br /><br />Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08858232423819687001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5461245170077475695.post-45830770753212785002017-03-11T18:09:05.596-05:002017-03-11T18:09:05.596-05:00Ken
