We're keeping our eyes on Hat as we get into the fall. The days are shorter and the waters everywhere are cooling off and this means we'll see some good Blue Wing Olive hatches in the afternoons in the flats. Keep your eyes open for the October Caddis to come off on the stretches below the 299 bridge, it won't be long now! Tricos are on the wane and the remaining Callibaetis are small. Hoppers may be on the menu and a hopper-dropper setup below 299 with a BP Weiss Nymph, #18 S&M in olive or black, or Sweet Pea should pick up fish on either fly. Rubberlegs in the deeper holes will cajole a large fish to eat. In the flats below the Powerhouse 2 Riffle, target sipping fish with the appropriately sized Adams, #18-20 would be about the largest we can recommend.
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
