RIGS Fly Shops & Guide Service's Tip of the Week
Flows have come up but clarity has not been affected. The water has some color but still a few feet of viability. PMD's! are coming off from about 11am till 3pm and fish are feeding heavily on the surface. Before and after the hatch dry dropper with PMD energers has been very successful.
