Default Prarie creek campground?

I'm thinking of heading up to prarie creek this week. Any tips for fishing, what flies should I try? Also I'm gonna stay at either strachan campground or prarie creek campground, which one has better fishing?

Strachen for sure. nice water up or down from campground. too many quadders upstream from the other campground running up and down the river causing dirty water and destroying the creek bed.

Will be heading to Strachan on Wednesday morning and staying overnight in my vehicle. There are more reports of cougars in the area, so take the necessary precautions.

See what the hatches are like. Stimulators have always worked for me up there.

When you drive there, look at the bugs in your radiator for ideas on what colors and flies to use.
