Flows are really dropping fast (currently at 350cfs) If this trend continues the “catching” will be very good after Labor Day in the wild trout section, & for drift boat trips. You can bank on low flows by October with excellent conditions. I would not hesitate to book a drift trip this fall as I believe the “catching” will be very good early on. At release rates above 250cfs. this river is tough to wade, & cross. You will see caddis, damsel, & PMD hatches through the fall here. Chub & sucker fry will be the primary target for the bigs, so have a selection of streamers like Loebergs, Spruce-A-Bu’s, and Punk Perch with a moderate sinking tip line. Good nymphs to have are Assassins, flash back pheasant tails, Drifters Crawlers, olive crystal caddis, olive dubbed caddis, and broken back tiger/zebra midges.
This fishery remains open year around. Special regs from the footbridge at Pleasant Valley campground to the fishing monument 4.7 miles downstream.
