Yesterday was as beautiful as advertised. The wind stayed own, it was 70 degrees, and the fish were eating. It was a good mix of everything on the hatch list. If you’re getting rejections watch the rise forms closely. We saw fish eating blue quills, hendricksons, and caddis all in the same run thoughout the day. Today looks like a better fishing day. We should have good cloud cover, wind 5 – 10 mph from the South, and some scattered storms. Today’s rainfall should total less than 1/4″ that will soak right in to the ground. The air temp will be close to 80 degrees.
