Strategies, Techniques and Tips:
The Brown and White Belly Sculpin Streamers are good flies to use for the larger size trout.
Crawl them on the bottom in the deepest water.
Our articulated streamers will catch the larger trout.
Olive and black Matuka sculpin are great streamers to use at this time.
Blue-winged Olives are hatching.
Aquatic worms are working.
Winter stoneflies are working.
We still think a good 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.
