Fished today on the Smith for a couple of hours.  Lots of bugs hatching but very few fish rising.  Caught 5 browns and a rainbow nymphing.

The first 2 pictures are bugs I saw today.  They were pretty large.  Im not so sure the first one is a water bug or not though, looks like some type of moth but I saw it skipping across the top of the water.  Anyone know what it is?


This bug landed on my waders. Dont know for sure if it hatched from the water or not though. What is it?



I thought this was the same bug as in the previous picture but now that I look at the picture, Im not so sure. Kind of hard to track them with the camera.  A bit blurry.



Another hold out from the stocking truck.



Beautiful fall day at the bottom of the special regs.









And here it is. A personal record.  The SMALLEST brown Ive ever caught!  Maybe I should have left him on and cast it back out.
