Heading out to a little blue line for a few hours. Coming back from Canada the other day and it was still “Moderate” Tried to fish here 2 weeks ago and it was in runoff mode; still high and pushing hard but doable, although I did take a swim No bugs around and the sun’s pretty bright so it takes a while for the trout to start looking up; when they do, drifting something along the seams gets it done That was fun. Regards, Scott

McPhail’s Hill Loch Muddler (variation) Spinning the hair as shown in his video I was able to pack a good bit into a small space for a denser head.
