Keswick is still a solid option

It has been a while since we've had a report, but the latest is that Keswick is still a solid option. This is a midge factory and as we continue to edge into fall fish are looking for the small bugs. Blue wing olives are also coming off in the afternoons. The best fly has been the dark BP Weiss Nymph, but #18 - 20 (ouch!) black Zebra Midges are also producing. For picky fish, you may have to tie on an X-May or S&M, but probably not. Fishing olive Sculpin patterns like the Slumpbuster on a sinking line can produce vicious takes. Fall on Keswick is always a great bet!
