Yesterday was another day of good fishing. The flows and temps are in great shape so the bugs and fish continue to be active. We kept the cloud cover for most of the day which certainly helped the fish feel more comfortable. Along with the normal isonychias, sulphurs, and olives be sure to carry a couple of golden drake patterns this week.
Today looks like a mirror image of yesterday with a bit more sunshine. We should see some clouds off and on with some intermittent showers. The total rainfall amount should be insignificant to the system.
