The turn of the season. Daddy longlegs begin their reign, sedge fishing peaks at dusk, and the first hints of autumn appear in shortened evenings. Trout are starting to fatten up.
Water temperature is the master variable for hatch timing. Calendar dates are rough guides — what really triggers emergence is accumulated warmth (degree-days) and instantaneous water temperature. A warm March can bring April hatches; a cold May can delay them by weeks. Rise Daisy uses live water temperature data to predict what is likely hatching on your river right now.
