Water Conditions: Good
Water temps up top are getting warm and fish are going deep late morning. Weeds are coming up.
Fishing Conditions and Hatches: Good
Excellent early morning, late a fternoon and eve. Challenging mid day. Early and late you can have great dry fly opportunities with fish feeding on midges and calibeatis. When you see a occasional rise in your area fish a P. Adams with a small bead head attractor below it about 18-24 inches. In the evenings with the wind is not bad you will see a great midge hatch and they love the Griffiths gnat. Other wise throw on the sinking line with a streamer and you can catch'em at any time of day, just very your retrieve, depth and color.
