Most of our irrigation reservoirs feature water storage which enhances fish activity through cooling water which gives better dissolved oxygen concentrations. The large the salmonid, the more important good oxygen concentration becomes. Now trout will tend towards shallower water to forage.  Leach, nymph, scud, streamer patterns become more effective.  Consider getting onto such as Chesterfield, Daniels, and Treasureton Reservoirs and trying the waters adjacent to aquatic vegetation to present these. 

Flies to try:

• Kaufmann’s Scud Gray Olive
• Ruby Eyed Leech Canadian Olive
