Trout Snack Tuesday // RIO's Emma Stone Skwala Style The Emma's stone has bushy hackle, elk hair, and rides on foam chassy.

We are still in the early stages of this hatch here on the Yakima River and over the next couple of weeks the Emma Stone will get introduced to a number of hefty Rainbows!

This mama Skwala is doing her thing—notice that black glob on the back? That’s an egg sack, and it means she’s about to finish the stonefly lifecycle.

Trout key in on that behavior, which is why skating or twitching your Skwala dry fly can be d
