From the benchWith overnight rain showers possible, check water clarity at your first access point before rigging — if there's any off-color tinge, focus on the lower, slower flats where fish can see your fly longer. Once the sun climbs and the air warms toward midday, position yourself downstream of rising fish in the flat meadow sections and present your Mahogany or BWO dry with a pile cast to buy extra drag-free drift time. The clearest, most technical fish will be holding in the seams between weed beds, so keep your approach low and your shadow off the water. Afternoon sun on Monday promises the best dry-fly window of the weekend — plan your best water for then.
