This past Monday saw a good PMD hatch happening north of the 299 bridge and some Yellow Sallies up by the PH2 Riffle. Day to day you will see different things happening, but on the sunny days you will definitely see PMDs coming off. Callibaetis and Gray Drakes are in the offing as well. On cloudy days make sure you have Green Drakes in your box. Wink, wink. Spring is happening, we have a storm over the next few days, and you don't want to miss the Salmonfly hatch beginning next month. Bring your Hackle Stackers, Griffith's Gnats, and a stealthy approach. The PMD Challenged in #14, Milla Time May PMD #16, Sparkle Stacker PMD #18, and the Mayfly Cripple Limeston #16 are good dries during a hatch. Nymph-wise, the BP Weiss nymph, X-Mays in #18, or Sweet Peas are great to have along with some Peaches n' Green. And please remember to respect other anglers and the spawning Rainbows.
Hot Flies:
• Lance's Jigged X-May
• Rubberlegs
• Sweet Pea Jigged Baetis
• Pheasant Tails
• Mercer's Missing Link
• S&M Nymph
• Walt's Worm
• Peaches n' Green
• BP Weiss Nymph
