The Fall River has been good with a lot of fish up to the headwaters and also a good number near the tubes and falls. 
There have been good hatches through the day and evening with PMD’s being the #1 to count on, but don’t stop with that because other important hatches will include BWO’s, Tan Caddis, Midges, Little Olive Stone and Yellow Sally’s and Rusty Spinners are dusk. 
Our guides have been continuing their successes with small Euro Jig Streamers like Soccer Moms, Squirrel Jigs & Mini Gulps. Nymphing with Eggs, Zebra Midges, Micro May to match PMD and BWO and Perdigons has been good. Try a Spanish Bullet with the little Red Tag and Black Body and let me know how you like it. 
AQI is yellow zone at 65 near the hatchery.
