Driftless Area

Rating: 4, temperature: 87 ℉, condition: Partly Cloudy.

Despite warm weather (today is the last hot day for a week) fishing has still been great on smaller terrestrials (ants and beetles) as well as for rising fish early and late in the day.  Spider webs are full of an assortment of mayflies including olives and tricos.
  Below the surface fishing is still best with small, thin bodied flies especially those with a hint or red in them.
  Finally, leeches and streamers have started to catch quite a few more fish lately.
  Looking ahead, next week will be significantly cooler with highs in the high 50s to mid 60s, but with stable weather.  It is looking like a fantastic fishing week!
