Falcon's Ledge 's Tip of the Week

Afternoon midge hatches are the best bet for a hatch. Look for fish hiding behind structure and in deeper holes with low flows. Try a Zebra Midge, Lightening Bug, Copper John, or Prince Nymph when fish aren't looking up. Try a parachute drake, stimulator, or parachute midge when fish are rising. Try a white streamer or San Juan worm when water is deep.

Techniques & Tips as of 6/20/21

Fishing nymph patterns such as zebra midges, prince nymphs, frenchies, and lightening bugs is proving most effective. Streamers such as woolly buggers, leeches, and zonkers through deeper runs and bends is also effective. In the evening parachute drakes, midges and parachute adams patterns are effective.
