How does this date compare to past years?
I appreciate your annual reports, btw!

Now if only we could grow more of the fish up there to be big enough to choke one of those monster bugs down...I know there's a few...it'd be neat if there were a few more.

They're out and about on the small waters near Walla Walla now too, have been for about 2 weeks.

Reds Fly Shop posted they had one on their front porch today. Seems early.

Usually I don't see them until well after 4/15, this year has been unusual. At points in the last couple weeks the small winter stones, a medium small size, and the skwalas (which showed really early) were about all at the same time. Or maybe now I'm just getting trained to notice.
