- Blue wing Olive Comments:
-
- The cornuta hatch provides good action in the morning. Fish the runs and pockets with closely matched patterns and cast accurately. Be aware that attenuata (which are smaller) are also on the water this time.
- Spinner
- Spinners fall at dusk. May be good fishing upon occasion but are likely to be overshadowed by the "Super Hatches" of this time of year.
