With the lack of snow, stream flows are dropping quickly and many are now fishable. However, they may still be turbid. With the poor snowpack and the unusually warm spring, anglers should take advantage of early summer conditions while they can. Expect very low stream flows later this summer. Flows in the upper stretch of the river have increased as water is being drawn out for irrigation, while flows closer to Mountain City have decreased as the snowpack diminishes and water is drawn off for irrigation. Fishing has been good using common nymphs such as copper Johns, hares ears and PT nymphs. Caddis flies and Mayflies are starting to hatch so anglers may want to try emergers and dries. Swinging small buggers and streamers should also be good. Spin fishermen should use small gold spinners. As of June 16, the East Fork of the Owyhee below the dam was flowing at 91.8 cfs while near Mountain City the gauging station was flowing at 73 cfs.
