Tried 'em all. The yellow did NOTHING!
This setup with the knuckle draggin' hares ear was the best. No middle fly did much.
Fished a jiggy craw on the way back down to the trailhead.
Which collected several fish I missed with the other flies.

Would have added another species to my list but didn’t have small enough flies, should have tied some size 16

What are you using for hackle and tail on the muddled hare’s ear?
That one has brown hackle fiber tail and a lt brown/bad cree attempt dyed, palmered grizzly hackle. It took the first fish, and got a lot of attention.
He’s a local guy fishing for subsistence. He fishes for these little fish using krill for bait on what seems to be size 14 hooks. Tenkara set up with a little lead weight and 2 hooks below.
The day before I spoke with another guy who was seining for little clams in waist deep water. It’s like a metal mesh at the end of a big stick he dredges the sandy bottom with. He would dredge for about a hundred feet that yields a handful of these little clams.
I swung this trio:
Through here.
There were lots of cutthroat and chubby rainbows around and the fish didn’t seem to have a clear preference.

where you catching browns at!?
Super secret lake in our neck of the woods.
Fishing less, going a bit farther afield. Put the pine squirrel craw on a jig hook. These things are just so darn good.

Better numbers on the dam counts this year. Too warm still at the mouth ? Seems the plunkers on the big C have had some success so far.
