Preparation

After fishing the Trico hatch last summer/fall for the first time I am becoming obsessed with catching trout on small flies. I caught some of the biggest fish of last season on the sz 24 Trico dry fly pattern pictured below. I tied up a number of them in preparation for this years hatch.
I've been tying patterns that were effective for me over the last five months of last year. I have not yet experienced the spring and early summer months' hatches in the Driftless so I'm sticking to tying a good stock of tried and true flies. Come spring I'll be experimenting with some new patterns!
