The McKenzie River remains our best bet locally and water conditions remain excellent. I have been seeing more and more insects over the past few days.

Air quality was very poor today, pretty sure the smoke was like cloud cover. The fish did not seem to mind at all.
A few key patterns to have in the box at the moment are.
