The Blue Wing Olives should be popping now and the fish will be putting on the feed bags. For the most part, we are still seeing daily Trico hatches and spinner fall. Other than that, keep your eyes peeled for whatever happens to coming off on the Powerhouse 2 Riffle, it is chock full of just about any insect you can imagine and anything could happen on any given day. Work the lower areas of the creek for the Caddis in the afternoons and evenings, you may find some areas with fish sipping Trico spinners. And bring your Rubberlegs, this creek is full of stoneflies. This is a spring creek, a full box of Adams in #12 - 18 and dark Missing Links in #14 - 16 should have you covered for any noses poking up.

Hot Flies: 
Lance's Jigged X-May
Rubberlegs
Sweet Pea Jigged Baetis
Pheasant Tails
Mercer's Missing Link
S&M Nymph
Walt's Worm
Peaches n' Green
• BP Weiss Nymph
