The weather is in a brief respite from storms, Hat Creek could be a good place to find some solitude and a few sipping fish to target. We are expecting some rain by the end of next week, now would be a good time to check out your spring creek game on Hat. Emerging insects will probably be smaller mayflies like Baetis and midges. Zebra Midges in #18 or 20, S&M's in #18 and other Baetis nymphs fished under a larger dry is one of the more productive methods during the late fall and winter. Rubberlegs in the deeper holes will cajole a large fish to eat. In the flats below the Powerhouse 2 Riffle, target sipping fish with the appropriately sized Adams, #18-20 would be about the largest we can recommend.

Hot Flies: 
• Lance's Jigged X-May

• Mercer's Missing Link
