The South Fork is starting to turn green in the Piercy area, and will continue to drop through mid-next week. Right now, it’s looking like it will be in fishable shape on the lower end next Tuesday and Wednesday. Another rise is in the forecast beginning next Thursday, which will likely keep it off color through the end of the month.
