Flow Rates and Water Conditions:

Water Conditions: Good

Flows are at not accurate due to icing , OR , they just rebuilt the shed at the weir so it might be down for some time.

Fishing conditions and Hatches: Fair-Good

 The hatches have been reduced to just midges but also try scuds, case caddis and small mayfly nymphs. Fishing has been good and as long as you head down to the canyon it's not crowded. As of now you can drive all the way but that could change this weekend.
