Good reports from anglers fishing the section above the Hwy 299 bridge with some Golden Stones and Caddis coming off in the faster water sections. Callibaetis will be found in the slower sections between the Powerhouse 2 Riffle and the 299 bridge. There are still some salmon flies coming off. The PMD hatches should become more prolific and consistent day to day this week. Bring your Hackle Stackers, Griffith's Gnats, and a stealthy approach. The PMD Challenged in #14, Milla Time May PMD #16, Sparkle Stacker PMD #18, and the Mayfly Cripple Limestone #16 are good dries during a hatch. Nymph-wise, the BP Weiss nymph, X-Mays in #18, or Sweet Peas are great to have along with some Peaches n' Green. Hat is great this time of year!
