We have some light rain falling this morning. Wunderground is calling for less than 1/10″ so the rivers will come through just fine. We will have decent cloud cover and the air temp will hit 60 degrees. The wind will be up again between 10 – 20 mph from the North. Some people found fish eating in the heavy wind Friday so today should be no different. Look for edges or other places that have a bit of a barrier. If the bugs are there the fish will eat. Nymphing will be your best bet early. It looks like we’re finally hitting a stretch of warm weather. Apple caddis are now showing in good numbers on some river sections so definitely add those to your box.
