Caddis in the evening are still the main ticket on the Madison right now. I like to use a #16 Hemingway followed by #16 Mike’s Caddis Emerger in olive. This is a very effective combo. There is some really great wading above Reynold’s Bridge and then downstream near Three Dollar Bridge. When nymphing, continue to use a smaller midge in red or brown behind a rubberlegs. You can also find some luck using smaller olive streamers like a #8 Lil Kim Copper or a #6 Galloup’s Mini Dungeon.
