Thanks to my friend and superb tyer Joe Allison I was able to catch three nice rainbows today.  He tied a chartruese "The Usual"  ( a Fran Betters pattern) last night at the White Clay Fly Fishers public tying session at the London Tract meeting house, and I used it this morning. Water temp was 60 degrees this morning.  Although there was a slight intermittent rain, I saw no hatch today.  Very overcast, but the trout were still cooperating.  A nice pod of fish had moved back into the pool above the London Tract bridge and were hanging out with a koi that some tropical fish owner must have dumped into the creek.  The Usual did it's job until a very large brown tore it off my 5X tippet.  Joe - please tie up a few more for me. Thx for making my morning.
