Driftless Area

Rating: 4, temperature: 75 ℉, condition: Cloudy.

Fishing has been very good, as long as you can find shade.  Fishing early and late is still key as tricos and olives are around in the mornings, and midgesand olives in the afternoons.  With the sun in a cloudless sky the hopper streams are not as productive as the fish seem to glue themselves to the bottoms of deep holes or hide underneath undercut banks.  Finding some tree cover or a high bluff face will increase you chances to find willing fish.
