still waiting for hex flies on pere marquette

June 18th, 2009 by steve

With warm weather starting to settle in our giant mayfly the Hexagenia lambada or more commonly known as the hex, should start showing up.very few of the big flies have been seen but fishing is still solid with grey drakes, mahogany duns and brown drake still hatching.streamer fishing in the water below M-37 has been productive with large streamers working best early morning until mid day is most productive.mousing after dark is getting better  with deer hair mice taking fish.        steve
