The EW is running at about 70 cfs right now. It seems as though there hasn’t been a tremendous amount of traffic down there as we haven’t had lots of reports lately, of the reports we have received, some have been pretty good and others have been tougher. We have started to hear about some fish being caught on streamers which is good though most of the successful reports have been with small nymph and midge patterns. It sounds like the most productive section has been the “Miracle Mile” section but there has been some decent reports from down below the bridge as well. We haven’t heard of any caddis activity yet but with the warmer weather lately they’ll probably be coming out pretty soon. Because of the low water situation we’re having this season, much like last season, we will likely get into a situation at some point where we will be encouraging anglers to stay off the river so now is a really good time to get some fishing in down there before it gets too warm. Some patterns to try include: psycho prince, tailwater tiny, flashback emerger, darth baetis, san juan worm, zuddler, dead drift crayfish, sculpzilla.
