The Ash Canyon road will be open in time for the Memorial Day holiday and Hobert Reservoir is fishing very well. An early morning midge hatch should be followed by a mid morning Callibaetis mayfly hatch until the winds pick up. Damsels and small leech patterns retrieved on floating or slow sinking lines are always a good choice early in the season. Ants along the shoreline can entice curious fish when the winds do pick up. If ants aren’t working on the surface, try to fish them just under it. Sheep creek specials and zebra midge pupa are other good patterns to carry on you.
