The South Fork has been fishable since the weekend, and has been in great shape the last couple days. Scores however, haven’t been good. Most boats have reported skunks or maybe hooking into one or two fish per day. But with the rain coming, Thursday looks like it will be the last fishable day of the season. Flows are predicted to jump over 7,000 cfs at Miranda by Sunday morning and additional rain is forecast for mid next week.
