As the early Quill Gordons begin to fade on Eastern streams, the Hendrickson (Ephemerella subvaria) start hatching on April afternoons. This species has prolific hatches that stretch from Eastern streams to the upper Midwest. Some of the better known hatches occur on the Pere Marquette and Pigeon of Michigan, the Namekagon and Brule of Wisconsin, as well as the venerable streams of the East such as the Beaverkill, Brodheads, Battenkill, Otter, Saranac, and of course, the Ausable. Must have pattern for your fly box.
