Linehan Outfitting Company5-Day Outlook as of 3/18/24
Looks like we'll have another day two of lovely weather with partly sunny skies and daytime temps in 50's. But don't get too excited. Later in the week it's back to rain/snow mix and daytime temps in 40's. That said, water conditions are perfectly good.
Techniques & Tips as of 3/18/24
Nymphing and streamers. Dry fly action is still another week away. Waiting on baetis and March browns.
