The river is still flowing at its 150 cfs rate. The BWO hatch is really starting to take off here and we are seeing more fish starting to move into the shallows and get into good feeding positions to take advantage of these easy meals. This time of day, the early afternoons can produce the best bites. Small streamers like our punk perch patterns have been accounting for most of our fish. On some days, you will find the fish hanging in the shallow and soft water, while other times they will be deep and tight to the bottom. Throwing frequent pauses into your retrieves can lure these fish into a strike.
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
