Flow: 500 cfs
Water temp: 40 degrees
Stomach sample: #18 & 22 baetis nymphs
Big fish were just beginning to move onto the flats so there wasn't a high concentration of them for sight fishing.
Parking lot was full-even on a weekday.
This pig measured 26.5" long and 16" girth!
Caught it on a #20 tan midge larva
photoshop cleaned this pic up nicely
Other flies that produced were red midge larva, mercer micro mayfly, olive pheasant tail, and sowbug (all in the #20-22 range). Mysis patterns became very effective in the evening. I'm guessing it's because the fish are more easily fooled by our rather opaque imitations of translucent mysis when the light is low. Or maybe more mysis are sucked through the dam during the evening?
