Oil Creek May 1st

Up early and a long ride north, then east, then northeast, landed me at the Petroleum Center in Oil Creek State Park. Josh, Dru, and Smitty were close behind. Figured i'd try swinging a bugger until a hatch and the subsequent rises started. No sooner were my boots wet that i saw a dozen risers in a minute, off went the bugger, on went the caddis. They were incredible selective all day. Had my best luck in the morning on a hotbutt caddis size 18.
Smitty dominated the troots with his secret parachute emerger pattern.

Loaded up the rods and drove further north to the Drake Well

Everyone landed fish on this section, the hot fly was still the emerger pattern.
