I spent a couple of hours at Eagle Canyon today. The water is a bit off-color with about 2 feet of visibility. The fish aren't having any trouble seeing the flies, though! We had a really good baetis hatch today, about a size 16. I saw a couple fish working the dries in the shallows at the top end of the small pond. I had good luck on a variety of nymphs, including glo bugs, micro spawn, copper johns, S&M Nymphs, Poxyback PMDs, and baetis nymphs. A tried-and-true rig is two nymphs under a small corkie indicator. Space them out about 18" apart with the top fly 18" under the indicator. Periodically lift your rod and chug the indicator across the surface about 3 feet at a time. That gets the fish's attention. Most of the strikes come right after you drag the indicator.0>
