this weekend is looking like spring preview unlike the weather we have experienced this year.  Sunny with highs in the 50's and lower 60's will certainly make many people happy.  Looks like Duke will flow the East Fork and West Fork at staggered times on the Tuckasegee this weekend. 

I would use my standard Delayed Harvest box with Woolly Buggers, Eggs, Girdle Bugs, and Streamers for the Tuck.  Some smaller streams could be good this weekend but still keep in mind that the water is pretty cold and fishing at the warmest part of the day could make your day more productive.

Keep safe and keep a spare change of clothes.  The water is cold and a polar plunge could leave you wishing you was better prepared.

Tight Lines!
