About the Blue Wing Olive Trout Fly
BWOs are small, the surface of smooth water is a barrier to them, and many are trapped just below the surface or must struggle to break through the water's surface tension.
At this point they are highly vulnerable to trout, and they are frequently taken just subsurface.
Expert Tip:
The blue winged olive is one of 51 species of British Up-wing flies or Ephemeroptera. Up-wing flies are more commonly known as mayflies, although this common name is quite misleading because this group of flies can appear throughout the year.
I have been reliable informed that there are 153 species currently listed for North America.
