The South Fork is running at just under a 1,000 cfs at Miranda as of Thursday. It’s been in really good shape for over a week, and has provided some pretty good fishing from the top to the bottom. It should continue to fish through the weekend, but will continue to clear, making fishing a little tougher. It was fairly crowded over the weekend, but has since thinned out.
