A buddy and i are heading up that way next week and were wondering what flies would work there this time of year.

I have caught my fair share of fish on micro leeches near the surface.

 hey ray the similkameen with mike right? get a piece of screen and tack it on with staples to two sturdy sticks  you hold it so the screen is on the bottom and get mike to go upstream and kick the rocks around... what flows down into the screen is what you match... you can stop in the fly shop in princeton and they always will point you in the right direction... take it easy ray

I've fished it on the way home from the Koots a couple of times.  I was using prince nymphs and stone nymphs.  Had a great time, even the little ones go crazy.
