Report: The recent weather has been nice, probably most of the snow in the area has melted. However, f you are looking to go into Ah-Di-Na you will probably be better off getting there on the Pacific Crest Trail than by the forest service road. The fishing ought to be okay, smaller BWOs and midges will be the primary insects coming off. Bring your S&Ms in #16 & 18, & Sweet Peas. Olive Hotspots and the Holopoint nymphs are good flies as well. To target the largest Browns, the olive and natural Slumpbusters stripped or swung have been paying off. To reserve a day with one of our expert guides to experience one of the most picturesque streams in the north state, call Chris or Bryan in Outfitters at 800-669-3474.

Hot Flies: 

• Morrish's Adult October Caddis
