A day, like today, with overcast skies and minimal wind is ideal this time of year for good fishing. Decreasing water temps, good overhead cover, and excellent dissolved oxygen make for active salmonids. Terrestrial insects may be inactive, but midges, all day, and PM BWOs mean active fish throughout the river. Brown trout are migrating to spawning areas and streamer patterns will be the best way to encounter them. Rainbow trout will follow to pick off drifting eggs which means easy protein.
