WATER CONDITIONS: 0 units
LOCATIONS FISHED: 2nd Island above Ackerman/Handicap Access
FLIES USED: #14 Gray Norfork Scud, #14 T-Worm; #14 Olive Norfork Bead-head Mini-Sculpin, #20 Dunn’s Dun
ROD USED: 10 ft 4 wt Winston
HATCHES: Midges, at least 3 different species
OTHER: Fished with Rod. Rod and I began fishing the gray scud, but it was a bit slow, catching only a couple. I switched to a San Juan worm and caught another couple, then switched to a Norfork mini-sculpin—casting quartering downstream, then stripping back. This technique proved excellent for both Rod and me. The Dunn’s Dun then got a try and proved very good, both dead-drifted and cast quartering downstream and stripping back. Anyway, I ended up with a dozen fish for the morning, though nothing over about 14 inches. I did catch a grand slam, with a rainbow, cutthroat, brown, and a brookie.
