Baetis Season

The baetis are popping, witnesses say.  The Bureau is stabilizing the river at an optimum low level of 800 cfs in two days, so they say.  I have some days off in the next couple weeks while waiting for the ice to melt on the lake and finishing some boat re-construction.  I'm headed to the river when the snow lets up later this week and temperatures get above freezing, so they say. 

Here's the hot fly I just fished for a week in Campeche with one of the flies I'll try to fish (and see) this week on the Green.  Back to reality I guess.
