The fish are terrestrial crazy!Waters are clear to stained with temps that are still incredible for this time of season.
Tricos in the mornings are still getting fish rising. The spinners are hitting the water around 6:30 and in some cases lasting until 10.
Terrestrials are the main meal right now with fish crushing ants and beetles in the riffles as well as hoppers fished close to the bank. Don't be afraid to tie on a bead head dropper below your larger more buoyant patterns.
Subsurface fishing is still best on smaller, thin bodied flies and scuds.
The sun is the limiting factor right now so find shady areas, fish deep, and fish next to darker undercut banks and under the overhanging vegetation.
