I fish the river all the way down from the dam. I look for pools and big rocks. Red Copper John or Red Pheasant tail works great.

It's been a couple years since we've done it, but me and Kota used to start at Little Mill (I think that's what it's called) and work up and down from there. That way I didn't have to worry about her being so close to the road.
I don't remember the fish being overly picky. On the skinny water what generally matters most to me is the fishability of the fly - so, easily visable high-floating dries and quick-sinking nymphs.
If I could only have 2 flies they would be an EH Caddis and a Hare's Ear. But that's just me.
If you are willing to hike, there is at least one little lake up there that holds a very nice surpirse...
