The Fall River is going to be mad house this holiday weekend, but going at dawn and fishing to about 10 or 11, and then going after 5 and fishing to dark will help you avoid the bulk of the crowds.
There have been good hatches including PMD’s, midges, caddis and some waning blue wing olives. Also look for yellow sally stones, green drakes #10 plus ants and beetles.
We are always enjoying some good action on small streamers as these fish like to chase or be enticed by a jigged leech with a lot of movement. And of course the nymphing action is just right with a light tippet and a heavy beaded fly that looks like an egg, mayfly, caddis, trout-chow or cranefly.
