5-Day Outlook as of 10/24/24
We are still producing fish on a sink line with some olive zoo cougars. purple and black leeches hung under an indicator has been fantastic as well. We are hopping for cicadas at any moment.
Techniques & Tips as of 10/24/24
midges and leeches under indicators or stripped. Large Streamers on a depth charge line can produce the larger browns and rainbows. Can fish from the shore, float tube reccomended.
