Last week I fished Neely Henry on the Coosa and there had been the largest hatch I have ever seen up there. There were patches of them floating on the water that was as large as my house. I caught 38 crappie and kept 15 for a couple of meals. While cleaning those fish I noticed that on about half of them the stomach was packed full of the willow flies. We fished the CrappieMasters Classic a few years ago on Harris Chain of Lakes in Florida and the tournament was won by a guy who found hatching insects and long line trolled very shallow through them. It makes you stop and think that sometimes we need to pay more attention to what is happening around us and try some things that would normally be (out of the box).
