Fishing Locations

The Stillwater is running at 487CFS and the colder nights have dropped water temperatures to a safe range. Terrestrials are dwindling down with these cold nights, but thats not to say you won't get an eat or two on a Hopper or Ant. We are starting to see fall baetis in most places,  A purple haze can be a great option out this way as well. With the colder and cloudier weather smaller streamers are a good bet. During the midday sun it will be wise to put a dropper like a pheasant tail or a lightening bug unter a larger foam attractor fly.
