It's been cooler at night, AND cooler during the day.......
Water in the main stem, below Boca, was 59 deg. at 9:30 this morning.
Perfect...
But up near town was warmer earlier.......still a little warm to fish afternoons.....
Challenging fishing regardless.....
Some clouds today made it nice..
A few Baetis....
Think small nymphs.....
The fish are thinking the flies may be electrified. ....beyond soft takes....
The fishy window is from before dawn to about 10:30 am.....You can grind it out by dredging deep near bubbles.
HOPPERS are the special just before noon....a variety of sizes and colors.....mud your leader for best results. Or fish'em soggy.....
A few risers, then the door slams.......
Chocolate Caddis sz 18
Dark chocolate Midges sz 22-24 and some tan ones too.
Micro mays.......try a Bird's nest sz 18 or 20.
Sparse PMD maybe a Peaches .
Swinging soft hackles in the shallows......
Be imaginative.....
Treat'em nice.....
