Access is now open all the way to the top lot and fishing has been great here. We’ve been seeing great hatches of BWO’s, midges, a few skwalas and even the caddis are starting up.

FLOW

RECOMMENDED
9-10 Ft. 4-5 Wt. Rod with a 9-12 Ft. 5-6x Leader. Flys: Winter Stones, BWO’s, Midges, Skwala Stones, Worms, Caddis
