Some Callibaetis are beginning to come off and Damsels and Dragonflies are as well. Ant falls are something to keep on your radar as well as beetles. A full complement of PMD dries and cripples along with your assorted Adams in #14 - 18 will keep you in good stead with whatever is hatching. Watch for the Water Boatman bite soon. Our guides have this place wired if you are looking for some tactical advice on fishing a great spring creek fishery with an expert!
