One of the flies I tried was basically a copper kreelex crawdad imitation -- nothing doing. I don't think it was the flies. We were moving pretty quickly; if we'd had a chance to slow down and really work the shallows and shoals, we might have done better, but it was obvious at the put-in we were not going to have a banner day. It was a really pleasant float though - a pretty stretch of river.

I was throwing a copper one, funny enough. Who knows if it was just the day that made the difference or if it was the color. We were mainly catching them in the shallows, mostly rocky shoals. The other big thing that helped was fishing the mouth of the feeder creeks since it was far enough after the rain that the feeder water was clear and helped water quality. It was later in the year and definitely after the spawn, so the fish absolutely could have been stacked up differently.
