Little Black Stonefly

little black stonefly

Hans Stephenson |


The dry fly season starts in earnest with the hatches of little black stoneflies. In the Black Hills these bugs start hatching in March and some years the hatches continue into May. This pattern fools the trickier more selective fish, while a black-fly fly will do the trick on the rest. Materials Link: Hans' Little Black Stonefly Happy Tying!
