I'd start with a caddis pattern myself. :rolleyes:
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Probably hoppers, small caddis patterns with a green body and some pmd's.

I fished that area a few times in mid June to mid July and don't recall anything outstanding as far as skeeters go.

Those 3 bugs I mentioned should cover you.  Hope you catch a nice big fat cutt on a dry.
