July 5th, 2017

We hope everyone enjoyed the 4th of July but it is time to get back at it for many people.  If you are lucky enough to still have some time off, get out and fish. 

We are looking at a chance of rain the next couple of days but this is very typical for us.  Just carry a light rain jacket and you will always be ready.  A nice walk and wade fishing trip can be productive right now.  Early mornings and late evenings are best but often you can still take good fish midday if you have enough shaded water. 

I suggest yellow flies such as Jim Charley, Yellow Stimulator, Yellow Palmer, Yellow Parachutes, and Yellow Caddis.  Purple is also another good choice as well as Adams.  Don't forget terrestrials, ants and beetles should be on the menu.

Your approach will be the most important part and thas is something that you can control.  Fish with your eyes first then with the rod.  Wade easily and conceal yourself with dark colors.  Don't be the human highlighter.

Tight Lines!
