On the Housatonic, Rob Nichols from Housatonic Anglers housangler@yahoo.com reports that there has been some great dry-fly action. Best bets for dries are Alder Flies, March Browns, Sulphurs, Cahills and Caddis (both tan and olive.) Nymphs have been also very effective - try Pheasant Tails (#14-#18), Hare's Ears (#14-#18), Prince (#14-#18), Caddis Pupa (#14-#20), and Copper Jon and Frenchie patterns (#18-#22). Water temperatures have been in the low-high 60's. Water levels have lowered, which has been great for wading but not-so-great for floating.
