The flows here have risen again and the weather is hot. Best time to fish are early in the mornings and the last few hours of light in the evenings. Small nymphs and dry flies have been working well during the hatches. Fish the riffle sections during the rise periods and go deeper if you are fishing mid-day.

Best Flies: Spruce-a-Bu #8 Light and Dark, Loeberg #10 all colors, Agent Orange #8-10, Crystal Leech #8-10, Punk Park dark and light #8-12, Flashback PT #16-18, Copper Tiger Midge #18-20, San Juan Worm Brown #14, Crystal Caddis Larva #18
