From the benchWith flows at 165 CFS the river has more push than recent reports indicated — wade carefully and focus on the inside seams and soft water behind mid-river boulders where trout won't burn energy fighting current. Set your indicator depth so your flies are ticking the bottom in 2-3 feet of water; the Pan's fish are tight to the substrate this time of year. When the BWO hatch fires between 11 AM and 2 PM, watch for subtle sipping rises in the slower tailouts and drop down to a fine 6X or 7X tippet with a size 22 dry or emerger — these fish see a lot of pressure and leader diameter matters. Keep your approach low and slow on the clear-water flats.
