Water Conditions: ??Good (as long as the wind isn't blowing). There are a few PMDs starting to come off, and some good hatches of Callibaetis. As the weather warms, look for the PMD spinnerfall to begin in full force any day now.

Fishing Conditions & Hatches: ??PMD Spinner fall in May on the Fall is epic, and should come off this year in good form.

The Fly Shop's Tips: ??The "Fall River Twitch" has been the most effective technique on Fall River for decades. Anchor your pram upstream of rising fish. Cast downstream and across, then feed line out to extend your drift a long ways downstream. This way the fish see your fly first, and enables a precise presentation without spooking the fish. If you're casting to a pod of rising trout, work from the outside in and you can often pick them off one by one.
