March is for midges

Took advantage of the sunshine yesterday and went fishing
with my friend Matt. We couldn’t have asked for nicer weather
and the time on the water was good for the soul. Around here,
fly anglers embrace March for its abundant hatches of midges
and small stoneflies. During our three or so hours on the water,
we saw a ton of midge activity as well as some small stoneflies.
Naturally some fish were rising too.
