    It sure can be frustrating when they're on the willow grub. I remember countless hours watching large Hautapu browns sitting under overhanging branches gorging themselves on the little buggers and completely ignoring anything else.

    I use to tie lemon coloured thread on a #14 0r #16 caddis hook and fish it on a 15-20cm dropper under a Blowfly Humpy with reasonable results.

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
