May 7th Fishing Report
Sunny, with a high near 56. Northwest wind 7 to 13 mph, with gusts as high as 21 mph.Creeks are clear to stained with temperatures in the low 50s.
The nights are still chilly enough that you are able to sleep in an extra hour or so and won't miss much of anything. Fish overall seem to get moving around 9. The sun has brought back the caddis hatches in the later morning and through the evening. They haven't been super thick, but fish are feeding on them as well as craneflies during the day.
Subsurface fishing has been great lately with fish feeding on everything from perdigons to the pork chop express. Just keep changing up and the fish will let you know what they want!
We are still fishing our nymphs under a hippie stomper or Cheeto beetle. These buoyant and high visibility patterns will get a few fish eating them throughout the day.
When the sun is off the water, do not hesitate to throw a leech or streamer. Fish are in a good mood when there is shade and will chase some bigger bugs this time of season.
