Yesterday fished well in the afternoon. People are still chasing Hendricksons on the West while the lower East and Mainstem have some March Browns, Gray Fox, cahills, and sulphurs. Caddis and olives are still everywhere. Some March Browns and Gray Fox have been spotted on the West too. It’s a big mix of different bugs right now. The intensity of the hatches vary based on where you are but everyone seems to be finding decent targets. Nymphing or swinging wets early has worked well too. Today looks like another good day with decent cloud cover. We shouldn’t see any significant rain showers. Flows and water temps look great.
Today will be 69 degrees with cloud cover and a slight chance of rain. Wind will be 5 – 10 from the South.
