Little Yellow Stoneflies Adults General Information:
There are several different species of the Little Yellow Stoneflies and they deposit their eggs at different times of the day. The yellow sallies will usually start to deposit their eggs in the late afternoons just prior to dark. You need to watch them depositing their eggs before you start to fly fish with the adult yellow sally. Since they are a relatively large insect they can be easily spotted as they drop down to the surface and bounce along on the surface of the water depositing their eggs.
The eggs usually will be brushed off as the adult touches the surface but there are times when they will actually lite on the surface of the water. When you see this show progressing, you should fish the imitation of the adult yellow sally. You will notice a wide variation in the size of these flies, and you should try to match the size as nearly as practical.
Presentation Information:
As you watch the bouncing of the adults along the surface, you might think that it would be an improvement in your presentation if you were able to match the action. However, should you try that, by jerking the rod up and down, you will most likely spook the trout. Use an up and across cast along the seams in the water. Remember to keep your presentation delicate so as not to spook the trout.
With the little yellow stoneflies in a good hatching situation during the middle of summer, it is possible to catch and release a dozen.
