Flows are picking up w recent rain. Fish are holding near the bottom in deep pockets. Suggested to use #18-20 midges and nymphs. I decided to use my confidence fly. 1/80th or 1/100 Olive Near Deer. 4-5x tippet. The fly gets deep, rides hook up and is less likely to snag. Caught 12-15 from 4-8pm between rain. First time on S Platte. It lives up to its reputation.
