Fishing conditions and Hatches

The Tricos are still hanging in there, more so on Hot Creek Ranch and the Interpretive Site and now the Baetis are hatching 11 to around 2. Caddis hatches have faded but emerger patterns are still working, they might be mistaking them for Mayflies. Don't forget the Craneflies, try skating a Cranefly dry or Stimulator.. Evenings are Midges and possibly Caddis if the wind dies down.
