This past week I had a chance to head back a few times to photo/video the remnants of the hexes. The water had come way down and the hatch that kept coming off became tough to fish. The duns pooped strictly from inside the heavy weed beds and extremely few got caught in the drift. While the fishing for fish was slow with a few landed each outing, the fishing for photos and video was incredible. I managed to get a few emergers on video, which will be hilighted in a forthcoming production. It was fun to wallow in the mud a little, chasing the hatch from a different perspective - thigh deep in mud and thick weeds! A couple of nights we actually wound up wasting the hatch from a fishing perspective to get some neat photos/videos. The fish aren't everything when it comes to fly fishing - not in our household anyway. :)
Cheers!
