May 1st Fishing Report
Fishing conditions remain strong, with some helpful rain overnight. We have fairly pleasant and stable weather through the weekend in the forecast as well! Streams have been clear to medium stain in the area, with nearly all water in fishable condition. On the surface, black and tan caddis patterns have been working well, as have blue winged olives and purple parachutes. A few craneflies have been seen already, so keep your eyes peeled for those as well. Under the surface, nymph and streamer fishing has been excellent too. Olive bodied nymphs such as Thread Frenchies and the Olive Drank have been great, along with the Pink Squirrel, Purple Drank, and various worm patterns. Black and olive streamer patterns continue to work well and make for an exciting way to fish - if you haven't tried it, you should! Overall, excellent conditions and a great time to be here in the Driftless!
