The spring creeks are fishing well as of now, and the water is nice and cold. There are a few Midges in the mornings and evenings as well, and even a few PMD's along with some Terrestrials to bring fish up. The midge hatches are fairly sparse so if the fish are on them they have been pretty catchable. Midge larva patterns are always a good thing to use. Most of the time what looks like a rise to a midging fish, the fish is actually feeding on midge pupa just below the surface. Don't be afraid to throw some low riders right below the surface. There have been occasional sparse PMD hatches mid day. As usual the hatches are much better on bad weather days. A size 20 PMD pattern is working well. There is some Terrestrial activity on warmer afternoons. Ants and Beetles can be effective in bringing up fish.
