Fished the DH section of Wilson Creek all day.  Water is clear, a little lower than it was on Jan 2, and temp is 36 degrees.  There's still good populations of fish although, I found a couple Power Bait jars along the bank and one still had some in it.  They're recent!  The warmer weather brought higher numbers of fishermen out and I had to detour around others a number of times.  The fish have spreadout through the stream more and become a little more selective.   However, that didn't dampen the 'catchin'.

Mike and I had success using olive/brown buggers as a lead pattern (and as weight) followed with a red pick-pocket or egg pattern and a really small dropper below that.  Mike was using WD40's and I was using a size 24 Rainbow Warrior.  It may be hard to see the eye of the hook of that RW but, the two 18" rainbows I caught on it didn't have any trouble seeing it.  It was a good day.
