I've seen the drakes hatching on the Dry - they are huge! They come out primarily at dusk. I thought now was prime time for them, but the latest Mossy Creek report said they are over, although that might just be on the spring creeks. Freestones should have drakes hatching now. As for stoneflies, yep they are in there and they are big. The pictures I have posted of stonefly nymphs were from other streams though. Even the mayfly nymphs in there are large - I wouldn't be afraid to throw a s10 or s12.
-- The whole Dry River is good, just pull of into any of the pull offs after you see the river from rte 33. It's great because it has a wide flood plain making casting really easy. The brookies in there love dries - I usually just fish an orange stimulator. I've gone during some high water times and still been able to catch em on top. Great place to fish a Tenkara rod too. All in all one of my favorite VA streams.
