Yesterday afternoon we had a decent olive hatch with a few blue quill mixed in. Good olives. It was the happiest we have seen fish yet. The rain and overcast sky certainly helped keep the bugs on the water. The next few days look cloudy with little rain. The air temp is down a little but should be back over 50 degrees tomorrow. The eastern drainage flows are up a little from the rain but should begin to drop back. No rivers came up dramatically and everything looks good for the weekend.

Blue Quill – #16 – 18 – Paraleptophlebia adoptiva
