Mostly sunny, with a high near 78. Breezy, with a south wind 9 to 14 mph increasing to 16 to 21 mph in the afternoon. Winds could gust as high as 38 mph.
It's caddis time in the Driftless!
Creeks are low and clear with temperatures in the high 40s to high 50s area wide. Caddis have started to show up in pretty good numbers over the weekend. Mostly black caddis, but a few tans are already appearing too. This hatch is in addition to the olives which are still around and have been hatching even in some sunnier weather.
Subsurface action has been best on frenchies, brush hogs, pink squirrels and other heavy tungsten bead head flies.
Do not overlook emergers and pupae too, especially on windy days like today, fishing just under the surface during a hatch can make a huge difference!
