We discuss the season and any news or gossip along the riverbank. Some of these anglers we will not see until the

These waters arc stocked during the win­ ter and, if the weather is mild, some good sport can be had. On some days, the fish will rise to a dry fly on the surface. These fisheries arc now stocking with triploid rainbows, which are sexless and bred to retain their condition throughout the year.
