Nymphs and Streamers are the way to go. Pheasant Tails (12-18), Hares Ear Nymphs (10-18), Caddis Nymphs (10-18), Black/Brown Stones, Deerfield Stones (10-14), Woolly Buggers (6-10), Large Streamers and Bright/Flashy Nymphs. Expect the Hendricksons anytime now along with some Caddis.

Water levels and temps are improving daily allowing fish and insects to become active. The Swift has returned to a more normal flow after 3 months at 200cfs. The Millers is still a bit high but coming down. The Westfield River is at a nice flow. Most rivers have been visited by the stocking truck at least once. Conditions will continue to pick up.
