Driftless Area

Rating: 4, temperature: 56 ℉, condition: Windy.

Cloudy and breezy today, similar to yesterday morning which means more olives!  With the breeze, dry fly fishing might be off except in protected areas, but emergers and nymphs fished in, and just below, riffles will be deadly all day.
  Scuds will be moving around quite a bit again today with the clouds so do not neglect them as a subsurface pattern.
  The hopper bite will be off a bit unless the sun comes out and warms the ground a bit.  However, beetles, ants, and crickets will still be available to trout and readily eaten.
