What's Working?

Lots of mixed reports this past week. Some spots have been very bug-heavy with lots of rising fish. Others have been mostly a nymphing game. Fish have been cooperative in either case. March Brown dries and nymphs continue to be hot. Green Drake and sulphur patterns were also starting to work well. Numerous anglers reported a classic Adams also produced well.

Other notes-

Green Drakes started showing up this week and fish were eating them. Quite a bit of rain is expected this weekend and conditions are likely to change considerably by Sunday.
