Actually, there are fish in just about every hole and cutts move a lot, so I
would start low in the main stem and work my way up the forks, both of which
have fish.I talked to a fly shop owner and he is getting reports on all the
local rivers having cutts entering the systems. Try a tan crane fly which
can be absolutely deadly this month followed by a spruce fly if that isn't
getting results. As for the Sockeye, he took an orange bunny leech.
Good luck,
Patrick
