Hey Tom,
Forget to mention, Terry Imai and I went up last Friday and fished. We arrived about 11:30 I walked downstream from the boxcar, about 1/2 way to the gauging station. The temp was about 70 (tshirt weather) and all sorts of bugs were hatching. I ran into Ken Davis who was doing a little bug sampling. There were sulfur/PMD mayflies (quite large), caddis, and a pretty decent stonefly hatch, sure looked like skwalas. Used a green stimulator with my own modifications, and brought four fish to the net between 14 and 17 inches. Lost a much bigger one who ran me almost to backing and broke off on rocks (what I get for using 6X tippet). I then walked back up by the boxcar and fished in the run behind for awhile, late, and caught another on a size 16 tan caddis. He was 14 to 15 inches. All were rainbows, except the one I lost, I am unsure what he was.
