Orvis Greenville's Tip of the Week
Lots of bugs in the air with cicadas on the way! Dry flies and dry droppers will be a great option. With several low pressures systems predicted in the coming days, getting out before and after the storms will be very productive. Make sure to check the water temperature before fishing; if its above 65 degrees go further north to fish.
