I fished the berry on my tube last fri/sat with UTcatman, and we cought a mess of fish. Im planning to get up there at least a couple more times before ice hits.
The money flys for me were a purple mohair, white wooly bugger, and a my money fly was a reddish semi-seal behind one of the above streamers. Most of my fish were on the dropper. Slow retreave was the most productive. I usually would just get my line out and paddle around while twitching my flys.
The air temp's werent the biggest problem for me, it was the wind. If you have a good set of socks on, a good pair of gloves to wear, and you layer properly, you should only have cold hands after you handle fish.
