Notes

unfortunately we were skunked due to our lack of midge emergers and adult midge flies.
trout were lazily rising but not even a size 20 was enticing them.
we fished roughly 4 miles of the river, deep pools, riffles, rock gardens, used most attractors in 20-14 , whooly buggers and other streamers 10-6. weighted and unweighted nymphs. unfortunately we couldn't "match the hatch" had we brought any emerging midge pattern i believe the odds would have been on our side!
