 The river continues to fish well with some good mayfly hatches happening daily. Fall River is not receiving a lot of pressure and you can find solitude. Not much has changed in the past week, look for spinner falls in the early morning, Tricos and Callibaetis. Later the emergences will be happening. Flies to target sipping fish for the spinner fall are the Drowned Trico, CDC Trico Spinner, the CDC Biot Spinner in both the Trico and Callibaetis. For the Callibaetis hatch, Quigley's Film Critic is tough to beat, although having Adams in sizes #14 - 20 this time of year will pay off big dividends. Brown and black Pine Squirrel Leeches and Theo's Waterboatman should round out your box for the afternoons. We have guides available over the next few weeks that will give you a great day, call Bryan or Chris in Outfitters at 800-669-3474 to set up a trip!

• Norman's Wiggletails

• Mercer's Missing Link

• Zack's Stillwater Swimming Leeches
