The term Blue Winged Olive (abbreviated as BWO) is often applied to any small olive mayfly with dusky gray wings and can include species from several genera within the mayfly family. In a stricter sense the moniker is intended to specifically cover mayflies in genus Baetis, but since many of the other closely related genera have similar appearances and habits, these groups are usually all lumped together as simply Blue Winged Olives (also known as the Baetis complex). The Baetis complex can produce some of the most consistent hatches of the season; often drawing fish to the surface in large numbers where they can be seen gently sipping crippled emergers or duns from the drift. BWO hatches are usually the first mayfly hatches to materialize in the spring and often extend late into the fall. The importance of this hatch cannot be overstated, and small BWO patterns should be standard in any fly angler’s repertoire. But while BWO emergers and duns can be significant throughout the fishing season, it is the tiny Baetis nymphs that draw the most attention early in the spring. As the water starts to slowly warm, aquatic insects that have spent the winter in the nymph phase of their life cycle become much more active – moving from deeper pools and runs to shallower riffles and feeding areas along the banks. On fertile streams and rivers, Baetis nymphs form a significant part of the biomass. With so many of these tiny nymphs moving about, and sometimes getting caught in the drift, the fish quickly form a search image. This is a very important point – it means that the fish have learned that any small olive with the general shape of a Baetis nymph is likely safe to eat.
