Donald,
I prefer the 2d one myself, but you should let the fish decide. Looks like your getting your touch back, indeed.

Re: Two more Spiders
Thanks to all,you are very encouraging.
By-the-way, William, what is a 'Sulphur', I have recently acquired a Kindle book on North American Insects.
I cannot find any Mention of 'Sulphurs'.
I take it that it is an Ephemeroptera.

Re: Two more Spiders
It's an unofficial term. Maybe see sulpher, it's usually spelled sulphur. They are little yellow mayflies (ephemerella invaria or dorothea), usually the fist or second week in May in the Mid Atlantic area, but earlier further south. It's a fly trout key in on accutely and create some great match the hatch opportunities.
