Fair numbers of planted and smaller wild fish throughout the entire river with an occasional large rainbow showing up to keep you on your toes. Most nymph combos are working well; keep the bugs in the #16-20 range. The deeper holes will require more weight and are better suited to fish using an Under-Cator strike indicator. The riffles and tailouts will also hold fish at times and a Stimulator/sofa pillow used as the dry with a small bead head midge or flashback PT #16-20 will get you grabs. The area below the BentonBridge has fair numbers of stockers that will also hit streamer patterns with a light sinking tip line. Loebergs/Spruce-a-Bu's here #8-10. There are strong caddis hatches as well as a large amount of hoppers along the grassy banks. If you prefer dry fly fishing this is a good time of year to get them on top. Water conditions are very good currently.
