Wunderground is calling for just under 1/2″ of rain today. It looks like the rain will fall all day which is better than a couple brief heavy storms. It should soak into the round for the most part. The cloud cover will be nice with the air temp hitting 60 and wind 10 mph from the South. Yesterday was slower than expected but people managed some fish. Nymphing and streamers were still the best bets but we have seen more olives over the last few days. The lower water should warm up faster and push the hatches a bit.
What’s Hatching:
Early Black / Brown Stone – #14 – 16 – Taeniopteryx fasciiata, Brachytera sp.
Tiny Black Stonefly – #18 – Capniidae sp.
Little Black Caddis – #18 – 20 – Chimarra sp.
Blue Wing Olives – #16 – 18 – Baetis vagans
