| Highlight: | Another typical late summer day - hot with a chance of afternoon boomers. As usual, terrestrials are the way to go on top with cressbugs producing subsurface. |
| Stream Level: | steady |
| Water Temp: | 56 degrees |
| Clarity: | clear |
| Fishing Overview: | Terrestrials are the ticket this time of year. Any fly that's black and about a size 12-14 will imitate an ant, beetle, or cricket. We're seeing quite a few caddis in the evening. |
| Specifics and Tips: | Drifting sow bugs in the water column in the channels between beds of cress should produce some action. Don't hesitate to use a large ant pattern on top. Drift them under overhanging vegetation. Caddis are a good bet in the evening. |
