Comments: Started fishing at River Road bridge and continued upstream to the campground. Small (#22 - #24?)light-colored mayfly in the air in the morning, but there were plenty of hoppers in the grass. Guess which I chose to fish?!
Enticed only some small browns, 6" range, in the pasture between River Road and the Seas Branch. In the bank structures near the campground the bigger browns, 12" - 15" range, came aggressively to hopper patterns.
One other note: saw a guy and a girl with their spin-fishing tackle come to the pool by the junction with the Seas Branch. No big deal, except the girl had her sytrofoam cup of "lures" in hand... How many people still use bait here after six years of "artificials only"???? Only we can stop this practice, you know...
