Seven (7) Day Fly Fishing Forecast: Rain returns tonight, remains unsettled thru early next week

The Winooski is starting to shape up nicely, but we have some rain forecast tonight, so we'll have to see how things shake out.  There were a couple of Hendricksons around the river yesterday, but it's still too high and off color in the spots where they're currently hatching.  The upper reaches may be the best bet.
