Weatherman said 55-60F so I took the day off. Where I ended up was a tad bit colder at 53F but thats still about 15F above normal. Water flows were okay but clear with a temp at 42F. Overcast skies helped my approach and the wild browns came to hand regularly. Below are some pics.
Below is an example of a trout lie that most would walk right past. Given the clarity of the water, I noticed a 'shape' next to the rock on the right. Being just a few feet away, I simply swung the #10 stonefly beadhead to the spot and let it sink. The trout took it immediately. It was just an 8" brown but I was pleased with my being able to spot it rather than spook it which is what I did all morning long.
