Fri Q trip

The quinnie is starting to heat up.  Not the fishing mind you but the river itself.  The levels are starting to really drop and the fish are starting to get holed up.  The diet has also changed.  Running some soft hackles up the river this AM there was not a single dace was even interested.  Odd to say the least.  Turns out the river dynamic might has changed.  Tying on a caddis nymph followed by a light hendrickson nymph yielded much better results.  The dace were now active and a rainbow liked the caddis.  Both are much smaller than what had been working but there was no denying they were what the fish wanted.  Go figure.....all told the tally for the day was a single rainbow trout and 8-10 dace.  If I had a little more time I think the change in the flies would have produced many more fish.
