Sallies, caddis, and Stoneflies have been the main hatches. Lots of fish are getting caught on nymphs. Buggerlegs, prince nymphs, PT’s, yellow spots, lil’ spankers have all been catching fish.
For dries most guides have been running a chubby in the morning with a dropper nymph and then switching to a hopper in the afternoon. On hazy days the pink or peach hopper has been working well.
