Tip: Use a seasonal hatch chart by month and insect group to choose flies before fishing
How to do it: Check a month-by-month hatch chart by insect group before a trip and select flies accordingly
Mistake it fixes: Choosing flies on the river without a plan
Why it works: A hatch chart predicts what food will be present, so fly selection starts before arrival and reduces on-river guessing.
When it matters most: Trip planning
