The spawned out mayfly spinner, floating on top of the water after death, is among the easiest food and fastest calories for the feeding trout. Immediately after spawning, the male mayflies will fall to the water, spreading their wings wide in death. Likewise, upon depositing their eggs in the water, the female mayflies will also expire, matching the low floating profile of the spawned out mayfly spinner. The Green Drake Spinner can be used to prolong the dry fly action during the summer's epic, Eastern Green Drake Hatch.
