That's a great example. I've found that throwing something different or even outrageous at fish that see a lot of flies can work magic. This spring on Lenice and Nunnally, I've had my best luck on a pattern I learned in Chile. It's big, mostly white, with rubber legs and an orange cone on the front. I tried it on a whim and it worked!

I also have a question about fish behavior. I noticed that the fish in Lenice (and Nunnally) are swimming around rather fast compared to their "summer speed." Is this a result of their feeding behavior (mainly chrono pupae), reaction to opening madness, or water temp?

A different alternative,
2 years ago, at Cady Lake, my son and I were having exactly the same results, even noticing that no one else was catching anything; most everyone trying to match the hatch with dry patterns, when my son put on a muddler minnow. Voila!! Catching really got good for a couple hours. My sons largest was 26".

Nada. I tried many different things. Nada. Chironomids, blood worms, very
shallow, very deep, in between, water boatmen, full-sinking chironomids with
a vertical retrieve: Nada.
