PMDs

The PMDs in 11 Mile Canyon have been pretty good.  This pattern has been money on the picky fish there.  It's a simple pattern, basically a floating Barr Emerger.  If you are looking for a great little pattern, give this one a try.

    Fished the Frying Pan a week ago and did great with the PMD!

    Hey Juan, Does this pattern work for BWO's and tricos as well, by changing the colors and size?

    I tied up some of your 180 trico spinners and tried them out. The hatch was not too good, but it worked fine. I could really see it and it was a simple tie. Just thought I would share.
