True signs of spring

My long time fishing buddy and I headed south to Tennessee this weekend, Saturday morning started of with rain but cleared up around 10:00, the sun came out and hit 70 degrees. Caddis were bouncing off the surface a good portion of the day with trout shooting out of the water chasing them. There was also tons of midge being sipped off the surface and a late afternoon hatch of Hendrickson's to make the day complete and to validate that spring has truly arrived! Overall we caught an insane amount of fish throughout the day and I was able to land a couple big ones, both over 20 inches.

Thanks Salmonid, this was the Hiwassee, not the Holston. The Hennies were not heavy full blown hatch but somewhat sporadic in nature; I imagine that the next couple of weeks will be pretty intense with them. The fish were looking for them however, we caught fair amount on both dry and emerger patterns.
