Linehan Outfitting's Tip of the Week
Water temps are still a bit chilly so nymphing will be very productive until pmds and caddis really kick off in another week or so. Five feet to first fly, one BB should do the trick. Think perdigons and rubber legs. Dry fly action picks up nicely in the afternoons.
