Conditions : Norfork Tailwater: John Berry from Berry Brothers Guide Service said the Norfork has received a lot of pressure due to round the clock generation on the White, but has still fished well. Midge patterns have been the go-to flies on the lower flows. The most productive patterns were black zebra midges with silver wire and silver beads, black Norfork midges and Dan’s turkey tail emergers. Other effective flies have been olive woolly buggers and soft hackles (partridge and orange soft hackles and green butts). On the higher flows hot fluorescent pink San Juan worms and orange egg patterns have been the most effective way to fish. There has been some major work done at Quarry Park. The parking lot at the ramp has been resurfaced. This is a busy ramp and it is great to have it back in service. Dry Run Creek has fished well this past week. There are some big browns that have moved into the creek to spawn. The hot fly, as always, has been the sow bug. San Juan worms and Y2Ks have also accounted for some large fish.
