Nice pics. We just came off our Black/Brown stone hatch and now getting into the mays now.
Also midges are usually good this time of year too.

Plenty!
Got some fishing time last week in east TN. #20 Blue wing olive mayflies mostly but saw some #16 tan caddis, midges and crane flies of all kinds and sizes and a few sulphurs starting to come off. We did best fishing the small BWO dries and had some great fun. I caught browns up to 16" and Pop landed a 17.5" rainbow for his largest of the trip.
Do you tie you own flies also?

Yessir, I tie everything we use. I also save fans, wings and assorted feathers from the turkeys too. Have shipped them for free to flytyers up and down the east coast as far away as Niagara Falls NY. Tail feathers make great stone flies and you'd be surprised of the uses of all the feathers. Sorry to ramble on so....
I am with you. I cape my birds out and just pickem as I need em. I got into tieing clousers here latley for out big Stripped Bass migration. Post up some pics of you flies and I will do the same when I get home.

Awesome trout pics!
I'll get the flyrod going for gills in the next week or so. :)
