[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]Thinking about right around the dam.[/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]Another question due to the fact that I have never fished the Green, is a PFD required to fish the shore line?[/size][/font]

No PFD for walking,only for floating. if you are walking make it a mile before you start fishing. you will have a funner time than if you fish the first mile. Copper black zebra and soft hackle sow. they should still hit a joes hopper in the riffles blow flys and bwo's. still a little early for glo bugs but they might be worth a try.

Just head upstream from Rock Springs. If you have time, go all the way to Seedskadee. Throw the big stuff (buggers).

Thanks PBH, have you heard if the Kokes are up river now?

you might be a little bit late for them, but there should still be some around. It seems like you usually get two different runs; 1 early, 1 late.

Really, I haven't heard this year, so I'm not sure what their status is. If you do get into some spawning koke's or browns, watch for the rainbows taking eggs!

[black][size 3]You are correct, no PFD is required for shore fishing. [/size][/black]
[black][size 3][/size][/black]
[black][size 3]But, if a person is wading in that river, there are times that it could be a good idea to wear a PFD. Although a wading belt is a good safety measure, folks should also consider their own abilities and sure-footedness while standing on slippery surfaces, and the nature of potentially swift moving currents.

[black][size 3]If there is any concern in a person's mind about a slip and fall, a PFD could be a good addition for more piece of mind - it could also be a life saver. There are a lot of good choices for PFDs that are comfortable and do not inhibit movement too much while fishing. [/size][/black]

[black][size 3]Also, as was mentioned, if there are egg stealing rainbows about - that could be a good time to use egg patterns to pick up a few. [/size][/black]

I have a friend going out with Trout Creek Flies the next 2 days. I will try to have him post a report on Friday when he gets back. Dont know if it will help since you are looking to hit the upper Green?
