[July 21st, 2003]. Bennett Springs
is at normal level and is slightly cloudy but visibility is good. Nymph
fishing is good with bead head pheasant tails working well in sizes 16
and 18. Gold ribbed hares ear are also working well in sizes 16 and 18.
Dry fly fishing has been good but small sizes are the best in light
cahill and pale morning duns. Sizes 18 through 24 are working the best
with the smaller sizes in the evenings. Cracklebacks and renegades are
working well in the middle of the day when fished dry or skipped back
just underneath the surface.

include the flies that are working best in the Midwest. Just $9.00.dozen.
We will be glad to custom build one that fits your fishing style- Just
12.00/dozen
