We haven't received any recent reports from Lewiston. This could be a good place to go in the spring with good Callibaetis hatches and midges coming off in droves. The Dragonfly nymphs are going gangbusters too, so bring brown, black and olive Wooly Buggers along with your assorted red, black and brown Zebra Midges in #14 - 18. If the visibility is decent, this could be a good destination to hook a ton of rainbows.

Hot Flies:

Midge Flies:
Harrop's CDC Emerging Midge - #20

Nymphs/Wet Flies:
• San Juan Worm - Fire #8-14
• Chromies - #16-18
• Beaded Zebra Midge - #16-20
• Mercer's CB Micro Mayfly - #14-18
GB Half-Flashback PT - #16-20

Streamers & Leeches:
• Beaded Micro Buggers
