Notes

14" rainbow up by the dam on the south side of the river on a #20 red zebra midge. Fish were rising steadily to what looked like midges along the bank.

4 smaller fish in between the dam and Mike's hole. All fish came on a #20-22 black WD40.

Mike's hole was clogged with grass and moss except for the main flow. Fish were rising to midges or emergers.

Caught 3 rainbows, two 10-12 inchers and one small guy. I also hooked and lost 3-4 more good fish. Fish were caught on #20-22 WD40 and rainbow warrior.

No other fishermen.
