What are they eating??

Splashing Rise:
Emerging insects breaking through the surface film. You will see the Trout completely clear the water. Use Skitter caddisfly imitations or a dead-drift emerger.

Sipping Rise:
The flies are resting on the water surface. The Trout will suck the insect. The perfect time for that dry fly.

Head & Tale Rise:
Insects stuck in the surface film. You will see the Trout's head and dorsal fin and tail as it rolls. Cast your fly up current from the last rise and let it drift naturally past the line.

Tailing:
Immature insects or other food from the bottom of the stream. Trout won't usually take a dry fly.
