The fishing

As a small stream, a tributary of Hutchison Creek, Sangrida Creek fishes the way creeks of its size do: short drifts with a buoyant attractor dry over a light dropper, working the pocket water and the heads of pools. Match the fly box to the season and confirm against a current local report.
