South Fork 8-11-12

No big change here.  Flow out of Palisades Dam is constant (12,400 cfs) and water temp. below the dam is 63 deg. F. Riffle fishing remains spotty. Some good overcast would help improve fishing there, but it is also possible that this is an off year with respect of numbers PMDs.  A few mutant golden stoneflies are showing up, but not as many as last year.  Keep on slamming the banks with chernobyl types and terrestrial patterns.  And do not forget to do the same with that old favorite the super renegade. Pitch it below overhead cover, pull it under, then away from that cover.  The “Super” may be out of style, but it remains one heckuva fish catchin’ fly!
