Ive been on the river once or twice fishing for the past 7 weeks.  The topwater bite is really getting good...especially with the lower flows we are having due to how dry our weather has been.  White poppers have worked great the past few days but be reared to change your colors. Look for days with partly to mostly cloudy skies and lower flow.  I expect the grasshopper bite will be getting good as we get more into summer. Spots, Redeyes, bluegill, and redbreast will be eager to eat anything that looks right.  Expect to catch all 4 species in the same day. 

 

Cast to to submerged logs in slow current for  big spots. Cast to 2-4 foot water with slow to moderate current  with submerged structure for Redeyes and Redbreasts. May also catch spots in the current.  Redeyes are a lot like trout so don't overlook casting to current!

 

Tight Lines!
