Strategies, Techniques and Tips:
Midges are hatching. Fish the larva and pupa in tandem for the best results. Fish
the adults only when you see them on the surface. Blue-winged Olives are hatching
on cloudy, overcast days. Brown Sculpin and White Belly Sculpin are great
streamers to use at this time. Black Matuka and olive Matuka Sculpin are also very
good steamers to use at this time of the season. Spotted Sedges (both caddisflies)
are hatching.
Mahogany duns are hatching.
