   The outstanding midge fishing continues ! Sipping fish all day on most of the major runs and holes and with the small but welcome level bounce we got overnight due to laast evenings showers it should be another great one today . A #32 v-wing black or olive up and a pupae down has been a very good rig but try some tiny usuals as well . Most importantly be sure to concentrate on getting a good drag free drift ! We are still having good mixed spinner falls before dark with some areas producing medium density events . This changes evening to evening so take your best guess ;) ... See you on the river !

   Lucille ,The magic fishing spider , like myself , finds the little #32 midges to be very satisfying and suggests you have plenty in your box before hitting the river !
