It's Hopper Time!

Found this one out our way. Thought it was a green June bug. Looking at the underside it might be a figeater.

I coworker of mine in PA said they are overrun with spotted lattern flys.  Do you have them near you too?

@Phil Lilley Sorry for late response, 100 mhw. running since about 1:00 p.m I fished 6:30pm - 7:00pm

I threw a pretty decent size hopper pattern size 6 hook, black foam body, purple dubbing 8 purple legs  pretty basic, but they liked it.

We see a lot of them in Delaware, but are now seeing them frequently here in Maryland.

Fished last evening. Lookout to the narrows. 2 units. Pink hopper along the bluff. 8 takes. 6 landed rainbows. 2 over 20!  

It’s going to be a fun fall run!

I'll do one cast today using the hopper.  They're running water pretty hard this afternoon.
