Comments: Made my way back up to Stiles again this evening. Tried both of the patterns that I have had luck with on my last two trips and only got 1 small (5-6") brookie. I then switched to a B.H. hare's ear #20 and had great results. Caught and released a total of nine brookies and two small browns. Landed my biggets fish on my fly rod yet, a 13" brookie. I am still very new to this sport and am sorry that I couldn't give more information on the hatch that was taking place. I guess that's one area I really need to study! There were alot of young people fishing from the banks and I was pleased to see that they were all very courteous to one another. Good luck everyone and Tight Lines!
