Driftless Area

Rating: 2, temperature: 90 ℉, condition: Light Flurries.

 The hot weather continues today.
  Fish early and late in smaller headwater streams, or find the shade for the best success.  
  Remember to use your thermometer.  Water temps over 65 will be poor fishing, and the 70s can be lethal to trout.
  Terrestrials are key, with fish responding to hoppers and beetles fished right along the banks.
  Heavy subsurface bugs with a bit of flash are effective fished deep and underneath undercut banks.
