I was out chasing pannies in the Rochester area about a week ago. There were some in shallows but its still a bit early for them as stated above. I would probably recommend hauling down to the whitewater state park area. If you drive to the small town of ELBA there are 2 bars on the main drag. Take the road between them and follow the gravel back until you drive over the 2nd bridge. immediatly after the 2nd bridge there is a small parking lot. There is trail leading back west along a corn field. Follow it back until it hits the river and start fishing. If you need better directions shoot me a PM or email and I can give you more specifics. Bring some Midge and BWO patterns, also the grey caddis are just starting to come out and are very prolific on that stream. That hatch can really get em going. If you feel like exploring a little more, or dont want to make the drive that far south this website should help in the hunt. The area I am refering to is in the top left corner of map 8 and spills over into map 7
