Brown Drakes!

Finally a great night of bugs.  A medium to light spinner fall where I was and a LARGE emergence.  There was a blanket of brown drake shucks on the water well after midnight.  Could have been over eighty to ninety cars from the Picabo bridge all the way upstream through the willows to the highway 20 bridge.  The downside?  May have been too many bugs and the fish acted as though they may have been overfed before the largest part of the emergence happened.  I'll post some pics tomorrow.  For now, here's a wild iris shot I made tonight using a 105 2.8 macro.
