Our shop will close this Friday 10/20 for the 2023 season. Nothing bad- we just need a little time off. We will reopen April 1st like normal. In the meantime we’ll be back on the blog in November for the limited fly of the week.
Today looks good with a warmer air temp, cloud cover, and some light rain. Wind will be less than yesterday. It definitely has the olive feel today. The hatches have started between 1 and 2 pm on most days. Keep a few Isonychias, caddis, and heptagenia patterns handy but it’s still mostly olives. We had okay bugs yesterday but the wind make it difficult.
Today will be 56 degrees, cloudy, with a slight chance of rain. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the North.
