Wednesday was interesting. We started out slow stripping nymphs & midges waiting for the baetis hatch. Well, despite the bright sun, the mayflies came off big time . . . and very few fish were eating them. After just a couple of grabs on dries, it was time to change both tactics and locations. Indicators and midges with droppers in deeper water with about 9' of flourocarbon paid off with a bite every other cast much of the afternoon. What a great way for two really nice clients to finish up their Father-Son day day on the water! Thank you Trout Gods . . . . Jeff
