Hey berms,

Do you fish the dirty worm often when there is a trico hatch? Some old timer used to tell me that the best trico spinner imatation was a size 26 dirty worm tied with white thread. Another guy told me that a bead head dirty worm tied with a tuft of Icelandic female yearling goat belly hair harvested during estrous (sp?) and died hot pink made an excellent trico emerger pattern.

Anyway, I just wanted to get your opinion and stay away from the fires.

TIA,

MN
