Fishing between the rain showers 6/1

[netboy]

The rain slacked off a bit mid morning so I went to the dam C&R area. They were running a little less than 2 units and there was still a light drizzle. I started with an egg/midge combo and caught a few. Switched to a tandem soft hackle rig and that is what they wanted. Caught some good rainbows and a couple nice cutthroats. 

Here's a pic of the big one for the day....

I need to get over there next week.  Every time I go to Taney I say I’m going over but never do.

Hopefully the water will stay down.

Thank you for posting reports and keeping an update on the river conditions.  What is a your soft hackle pattern of choice these days. I fished at the dam C&R the weekend before last and saw a few sulfur’s coming off.   Have you noted any mayfly activity of late?

Yesterday I was using a green butt soft hackle with a bright green butt and peacock herl body.  I have seen very few sulphurs up there, but still seeing caddis on the sunny days.

Thank you.   That is a great soft hackle when the Caddis are popping.
