Excellent Conditions
Local Advice

The Willowemoc is running gin clear and very manageable wading conditions. At 45.5°F, trout are becoming active—your best approach is nymphing in the seams and bubble lines along the main current. When nymphing today, use a longer leader, watch your indicator closely for subtle takes, and don't hesitate to adjust your depth until you find the strike zone.
