Bear Creek is fishing great right now! The flows are on the drop, and even though it isn't super high there is still some stain. Hopper-droppers have been the go-to rig right now, but matching the hatch with dries has been productive. Midges, caddis, small stoneflies, and PMD's are hatching thick right now, so have the right dries and nymphs!
