Driftless Area

Rating: 3, temperature: 76 ℉, condition: Light Flurries.

Another gorgeous day in the Driftless!
Tricos in the mornings, terrestrials mid day, and scuds all day long.  Waters are clear and summer low with temps in the mid 50s to mid 60s.  There are a couple streams creeping into the upper 60s.  Please remember to use your thermometer and do not fish anything above 68 degrees as it can be lethal to fish.
  Fish have started to drop back below the riffles and feed on nymphs bounced along the bottom, specifically nymphs with a bit of color or flash.  Fishing a heavy scud with a flashy bead head behind it has been great.
