Tiny is the name of the game. Baetis, BWO's, Midges are the ticket. Seeing some mild hatches with Midges and BWO's. Try a Para Adams down to a Extended Body BWO. Dry Dropper rigs are doing well too with a Chubby Chernobyl down to a perdigon down to a zebra midge. Nymphing is still the most consistent but you have to go small. Small flies, small tippet, etc. For you streamer junkies cast it out there and strip it in through the fast water. Look for signage about closed spots. " Brett Elkman Vail Valley Anglers
