:: Umpqua Mercer's Skwala Nymph #8
Umpqua Mercer's Skwala Nymph #8
A wonderful late season, early spring hatch on a number of western rivers. Size 8 only. This Mike Mercer creation is the perfect pick for western rivers that have this active stonefly.
The Skwala hatch begins as early as late February and often continues through April. The hatch peaks between the last week of March and the third week of April, especially on warm spring days. Skwalas are meaty, olive-brown insects. They live among the bottom rocks for a year before various signals, including water temperature and flow, tell them it's time to mate. Typically,the Skwalas crawl from the bottom to bankside vegetation, rocks, and bridge abutments when the water temperature reaches 50 degrees F. Once out of the water, they mate and the females take flight and hover over the river, dunking their fannies in the water, depositing eggs with each touchdown. The males are wingless, an anomaly among stoneflies.
