Decent flows are coming from Cheesman Reservoir which has allowed us to throw some bigger presentations. Worms, leeches, scuds, and other lead flies have caught their fair share of fish. Midges, caddis, and baetis are what's working behind the bigger presentations, as well as some yellow sallies depending on the day.
