Notes

Water VERY low, clear, great for wading.
Surprisingly saw alot of med-small greenish hoppers up on plateau but scant down in canyon. The persistent warm weather?
Fished nymphs, lost many d/t degraded tippet. No takers on WB.
Really needed waders to take advantage of the low water. Walked way upstream (towards bridge), alot of bank-brush made casting difficult. Quite a few fisherman up at bridge - Fri afternoon?
Fish were aggressive, fought very hard.
Beautiful day.
