Notes

Only two fish landed among three people in raft. I caught one nymphing a meth egg behind a tear drop nymph. I caught the other fish (20 inches) on a black bunny sculpin bugger fished close to the bank (rock). Over that last two days 6 fish were caught (all browns).....5 were on streamers.

Water is still cold and most of the bows are out of the river spawning. Browns are feeding opportunistically......not much bug action yet besides midges. We did not see any fish working.
