What is going on?
This morning I went out fishing. I have not had much success in this pond for several days because it was warm and the trout were inactive. We had a little rain and it was a cool evening (first time in days). I started using a Griffith's Gnat without success. Then I switched to a Gold Ribbed Hare's Ear. As I cast it it sat on the water and I got a strike. This happened repeatedly for an hour or two. If I put the fly under water my success rate dropped.
Question: What was the trout thinking the floating GRHE was.
Other facts. I live in New England. The other fly I had some success with was a small hopper.
Hypothysis: The trout thought the floating GRHE was actually a small hopper, or they were just dumb and thinking that whatever that ball of hair was might be tastey.
Your thoughts.
