The right place, the right time, and a little perseverence.
Went out yesterday, and after three hours of getting blown around in the kayak (too windy to anchor) and catching nothing, I decided to try the riprap. A few people there already, but none of them catching anything either. They soon left. A while later a front rolled in and the sky got even cloudier and windier than it was already. But then all of a sudden, this began to happen:

Then this happened:

Then a bunch of this:

And even one of these:

When I saw fish eating mayflies I origionally thought, ooh crappie, but I never did see one of them. Go figure. What a day once it finally got started. But then the front passed, the sun came out, the mayflies shut down, and it all stopped as suddenly as it started.

If it swims and eats, it'll eat a fly.
