They explained that the trout do just swim around with mouth open and vacuum them in. Easy feed! They also went on to explain that sometimes the hatch is not on, but the trout attack anyways. They figured due to the repetitive nature they learn to just take it.
I was in a massive hatch this last summer at Maligne. Didn't have to sample them as it was obvious just looking in their mouths. Even still, most around me were not catching but I was. I was also the only one casting out and not leaving it. Once it is down, I usually do the "figure 8" strip back to the boat. Seems to be the ticket when there is clouds of these things below...movement would make it stand out a bit. And man, did they attack it!

I agree! But fish do seem to concentrate in areas and ive been that guy at time and ive watched that guy at times catching all the fish.
