Fishing Conditions and Hatches:  Good

I don't know if you've noticed but  fair is gone and it's all good , a lot more lake fish have moved up and they're spread throughout the system. The road is still open and getting better but be careful on the side roads, walking the bank has gotten better but once again they're calling for possible weather by the end of the week. The midge hatches are strong and almost every back eddy has fish rising in the foam lines. Both planters and lake fish are still on the move so try attractor patterns such as San Juan Worms, Prince Nymphs, Copper Johns, egg patterns and streamers. Remember that the fish moving out of Crowley have had a summer of larger food so don't be afraid to use larger patterns. Remember that the water below the Hot Creek confluences will be 5-10 degrees warmer so if you get out early it might be best to start off closer to the bridge.
