Forecasts are calling for overcast skies today with scattered showers throughout, and it appears to be a little gusty from time to time as well. The rivers are in good shape and have been fishing pretty decent as of late. One thing to keep an eye on though is the water levels; the flows are flirting with the floatable/non-floatable mark. Caddis activity, along with some Olives have had some fish up and feeding at the surface lately. Streamers and nymphs continue to be the most effective, and we hear white has been the hot color, but we all know how that can change…
