From the benchWith the wind running 17–22 mph out of the WSW today, your best move is to work the river from a downstream position and cast upstream at a slight angle so the wind is at your back or quartering — this keeps your indicator tracking true and your mend effective. Set your indicator depth to about 1.5x the water depth in the main nymphing runs, and don't be afraid to add a small split shot 8 inches above your lead fly to stay on the bottom in the 3–5 ft seams. The BWO hatch will fire between 11 AM and 2 PM — watch for subtle sipping rises in the slower, glassy water along the banks and be ready to switch to a dry or emerger quickly. As the afternoon cools toward 55°F, transition to streamers in the deeper pools for the big browns that are actively feeding ahead of the cold nights.
