Buggers, PT,s Chrino's , and midge on a heavy rig. Still getting some very nice Trico hatches early in the morning, and the caddis are still showing.. by about 9 am, it’s over with. So get there early. WD40 a great pattern for the Tricos, along with spent wings trico and an emerging caddis, a very productive pattern for dry takes when they caddis are dancing. Damsels are coming off with this heat and a damsel nymph is a good one to have on your rig. A good idea is to get the CLEAR glow in the dark Thingamabobbers, you'll get use to keying in on it (looks like a large airbubble, to you AND THE FISH. The fish won't move off it as easily.
