Small Streams 10-07-2011

Many of these go into a funk this time of year.     Flows are down to base level, and insect activity is reduced to a fraction of  warmer weather levels.  Look for fish to concentrate in deeper water where there is more overhead cover.  Fish the top end of the deeper water first as fish will concentrate there waiting for food items coming in.  It’s a great time to practice  nymphing techniques for small waters.
