Falling Springs
Tip of the week:
Techniques:
The stream can be fished in many ways-nymphs dries and streamers. The stream is clear in the upper meadows and a little tinted in town. Weed growth is spotty. Some meadows are fully engrossed while others are lacking winter weeds.
I have been fishing nymphs off 4X, streamer off 3X and dries on 6X. The trout are even more skittish this time of year. Approach with caution!
Seven-day forecast:
