A slight chance of showers before 10am, then a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms between 10am and 1pm. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 77. Southeast wind around 6 mph becoming light and variable. Chance of precipitation is 20%.
Things are still looking great in the Wisconsin Driftless!
The recent rains have all but missed us or given us some light soaking showers. Our creeks are clear to slightly stained with temperatures in the mid 50s to 60s.
We're still seeing hatches of olives on cloudy days. Also hatching are lighter colored mayflies and even a few caddis are getting fish to eat on the surface. Aquatic insects are usually better early and late, with terrestrials (ants, beetles, hoppers) working mid day.
Fishing a dry dropper mid day with a larger, visible attractor pattern and a bead head tied below it is great right now!
Subsurface fishing is still hot on heavy bead heads rolled along the bottom of deeper pools and right below riffles where fish are feeding.
Mousing at night is picking up with quite a few fish hitting a slowly swimming mouse pattern!
