Once again the storms missed us and the rivers are starting off this morning about the same levels as yesterday. There are a lot of different bugs on the water now with a few species of caddis, march browns, gray fox, sulphurs, cahills, and green drakes. A few brown drakes were spotted last night too. We should see more sunshine today with a high of 78 degrees. Wind will be light and variable. Generally that means caddis during the day with the mayflies mostly hatching in the afternoon into dark..
