Area Report:

1/9/11: It's been unsually warm around the region, take advantage of the enjoyable weather, get out there and keep your eye open for midge. Bugs have been in the air but the trout have yet to really key in on them. Fishing streamers and small nymphs have been the most effective for me so far this season. Water levels appear to be low on most systems, take this into consideration and lengthen your leader, go slower, stay lower and target deeper faster water if possible. Good luck!
