MAINE - Life in the Slow Lane
I havent seen those in sense I left Maine in 93, Love them hathces
The old Green Dake...usually means some great fish'n 
Have you ever seen a mayfly (I can't remember the name but its suppose to be the largest of the mayflies doraithy someting like that ) I got to witness a hatch of them on the Missiouri River. They were just huge and the fish of all speices were gorging on them. mostly smallmouth
Not me actuly the best hatch I have ever seen was a caddis hatch. I caught more big fish in three days that most people catch in a whole season. I lost a trophy Land Locked Salmon 6 LBS + on a number 16 caddis and 4.5 lbs tippet. Never again I use flouro carbon tippet now and can use 8 lbs tippet with that size fly now!!! 
I know what you mean about losing big fish on light tippet. All you can do is grin and try not to kuss Yah right
This time of year people look for hex hatches to catch big brookies. These are Hexes Or drake mayflies
summer time means Big Flies and Big Fish!!!
