The hopper bite is excellent right now—golden and pink water walkers are top producers. Keep an eye on riffles for PMD activity late morning into early afternoon. Nymphing a two-fly rig with a small rubberleg and a #18 tungsten pheasant tail continues to be a reliable way to find fish. Streamers are producing in the low light hours, so have a few darker patterns ready for early mornings.
