Strategies, Techniques and Tips:
We still think the best strategy is to fish a tandem Midge rig under a small strike indicator with the
midge lava as the bottom fly and the midge pupa as the top fly. Fish the adult midge only when you
observe trout feeding on the surface.
The Brown Sculpin and White Belly Sculpin streamers are good flies to use for larger trout.
Matuka sculpin streamers are also working good.
Aquatic worms are working.
Winter stoneflies are hatching.
