Strategies, Techniques and Tips:
It is almost alway best to fish a tandem Midge rig under a small strike indicator with
the midge lava as the bottom fly and the midge pupa as the top fly. Fish the adult
midge only when you observe trout feeding 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 (caddisflies) are
hatching.
October Caddis are hatching.
