Cotter walk in access 9-24

[netboy]

We have had good wading water of 1 unit for the past couple of weeks. I fished the Cotter access this morning and had a good trip with lots of rainbows, 2 browns and this nice cuttie. Best fly today was a purple body crackleback stripped in the surface film. I have some freinds that just got back from a trip to the Green River at Flaming Gorge and that was the hot fly up there, so I tied a couple up and found out our trout like them as well.

I used a brown saddle hackle.

I tie them in size 12 and 14. I use the 12 in faster water and the 14 in slower water. 

The cuttie took a 14.
