Salmonflies continue to come off on the creek. In the Powerhouse 2 Riffle, and downstream north of the Hwy 299 bridge, you should bring your favorite dry, the Rogue Stone, #8 Brown Chubby Chernobyls, and orange Stimulators can all be good choices. Additionally, the Trico hatch has begun in earnest. You will need to get there early in the morning to find the noses poking around to slurp the spinners. The CDC Trico Spinner will do the trick, you can also fool the trout with the TB Drowned Trico Spinner. Don't forget the PMD and Baetis hatches. Make sure you have Adams or Parachute Adams in #18 & 20, Rusty Spinners, and a crippled PMD pattern like Zach's Milla Time May. On the Powerhouse 2 Riffle, there are lots of Caddis emerging too, Glossosoma and Hydrospyche, swinging a Soft Hackle, Bird's Nest or Poopah will get grabs towards dark. Also #16 - 18 Dark Missing Links, and the Lower Sac LaFontaine will work well. This is nature's melting pot of insects!

Hot Flies:  TB Drowned Rusty Spinner, Rubberlegs, Sweet Pea Jigged Baetis, Pheasant Tails, Mercer's Missing Link, and Green Drakes
