Excellent day to be on the river...! Had the whole run under the bridge, river left all to myself for most of the early afternoon.

5k or so was the flow, temp right about 51ish or so... Only fish that cooperated to hand was two in the 14 inch range while I was stripping hairwing streamers along the banks. Missed a grab that felt gator, but for all I know it could have been rock waiting to pounce on my bait pattern as well.

Swallows at about 1400 were eagerly skimming the surface at what looked like 20 minute hatch of a tiny mayfly (Wish I had those eyes..!!).

Caddis did not start till about 16:30, but that hatch was very brief as well.
Unlike several weeks back when the water was at 8k, there were fish working then; 2 hatches on Sunday and no fish working.

Switched to my nymph rig, with 3 bug combo's using several stages of each hatch, still no fin love on that dicipline.

It was windy, but it did favor the right handed caster. All in all - great day to forget lifes pressures and just enjoy the sounds of flowing water, nature paying you no mind, and a few fish letting you know they made it through the winter. Life is good..... Get out and fish.... -RR
