Maybe, but the presentation was the pits.
Anyway, I wonder how many people have actually read the plaques at the Muir "walk of fame" which quite clearly* describe the various food options, fly pattern options, and how how to fish them?
As to my past experience at Muir, at this time of year for the warmer sunny afternoons a silver bodied/dark brown quill back backswimmer pattern with a floating or Type I line should work well. In the evening try a pattern with some white in the body and be sure to cover the rises!
*Maybe not so clearly in recent years because the plaques have been dirtied up with poplar sap and grit. I tried cleaning one up last May but was worried about the finish.
