With the dry weather patterns of late the rivers are low and very clear. Reports have been sparse with little action on the summer steelhead or springer fishing.??Any significant rainfall should move fish in, freshen things up and stimulate the bite. ??Stealth, smaller flies and longer leaders are key to hooking fish under these conditions. Fish something smaller than the starling sized Intruders, leeches and prawns you were fishing this past winter.
