Has anyone found a dry fly that smallies will attack this time of year on the tualatin? happy to report back to the group. thank you!!!

This is a killer pattern on the Columbia now because of all the shad fry moving down river. I bet it would work for you. White with silver flash is what I tie the most.

Along these same lines I was going to suggest a white woolly bugger with gray hackle

I used a popper on the John Day a week ago that was similar to the one @Snopro is using. 100+ bass were released in half a day. Of course, I can't claim that had much to do with the fly pattern or my expertise. As my pal likes to say, John Day River bass will fight over a wad of bubble gum this time of year.

Thanks for sharing. I'll find something similar and give it a shot. I know i have a white a silver spinning lure but throwing a popper sounds fun. the bass on the T dont surface often but its worth a shot.
