Stayed a bit further upriver today. K then J. Fewer fishermen too. Sunny and 65. Hatches were a bit opposite of yesterday. Had some BWO's when I arrived at 11. They all but vanished mid afternoon, only to reappear again late. Shadows on this east-west stretch were later too. Speaking of shadows. I had some big shadows eat my soft hackle. Had some big shadows hooked on my soft hackle. Had some big shadows hooked on the leech. Some days the bear eats you. I had more eats than yesterday, yet far fewer fish to hand, especially early. Still a busy and productive day though. Finding it hard to leave the nice weather, comfortable wading, roomy river, and active fish.

Good spot according to these two |
Morning risers river right |
Needed some changes for the slow flat water |
Morning sweet spot |
Mid afternoon plan |
Evening shadows |
Still the fly of the day! |
