are concerned.
Brown sculpin and White Belly Sculpin are two of the very best flies to use during the
entire year. Articulated streamers work good.
Various species of Blue-winged olives will hatch mostly on cloudy days. March Browns
are hatching. Pale Morning duns are hatching.

Little Yellow stoneflies are hatching.
Terrestrials are working - carpenter ants, Japanese beetles and hoppers.
