It’s going to be cooler today with the air temp reaching 50 degrees. We’ll see less than 1/4″ of rain according to Wunderground so the rivers should be fine. Wind will be 10 – 15 from the North. We warm up a bit more on Saturday but keep the cloud cover. There were some fish eating on top yesterday (or close to the top according to reports) so have a good selection of olive emergers ready in the late afternoon. Start off with either streamers or nymphs in the morning. In the late afternoon watch the slow foam lines in the big pools for subtle risers.
