We had quite a few reports of good sulphur hatches during the wind and sun mid afternoon yesterday. That was much earlier than expected. The wind made it tough but fish were landed. There was a smaller mix if cahills and sulphurs as the sun dropped in the evening. The dark blue sedges came out towards dark as usual. We’re coming off a cold night and most of the river temps are started off a couple of degrees colder than yesterday. We’ll hit the low 70’s today with sunshine and wind 5 – 10 mph from the North.
