--to late for this weekend but I can say what I used on the weekend.
--Anything that floats high on the water from foam hoppers to tom thumb.

--the main thing seemed to be a good drift presentation rather than the fly.
--I fished with several others... we each used a variety of dry flys and fished the same waters.

--Biggest fish hooked was on a minnow pattern in a deep pool.. near the bottom... could see the fish.. it only gave one chance then wouldn't take any other offerings. It would not surface for dry's so tried nymph then minnow. Got other fish in the same pool on the dry fly.
