Here are a few images I took of tricos today on the Big Lost. Tricos on the Lost are quite a bit smaller than their relatives on Silver Creek. They are thinner and two hook sizes smaller. Around a true #24. The good news is that size does not matter as much. With that said, a tiny trico spinner behind an easier to see dun can make quite a bit of difference. I have been fascinated with trying to capture bugs in the air. I have a long ways to go and much to experiment with...
I thought the blue sky took too much away from these airborn tricos so I converted these two images to black and white.
