Inch Worm, ants.  Most any fly from our Davidson River Fly Selection Box would also do…

General Information: Water is at normal flows, so long leaders and flourocarbon tippet is a must. With a dry fly, try concentration on the riffles. To dress your fly, use Dry Magic and to dry it off once you’ve caught a fish, use Dry Shake.  With all the bugs hatching, try fishing some emergers on the swing.

Projected Conditions:The river should fish well all week. With the humid weather, look for some afternoon and evening hatches to come off. If it rains heavy, re-rig with something big and dark and add weight.
