The East is currently running at about 90 cfs. We had lots of mixed reports yesterday from the EW with some anglers doing very well and others not doing well at all. It sounds like the “Miracle Mile” section hasn’t fully recovered from the fish kill last year as most of the reports we received from that section were pretty poor. There were some fish caught in the upper section but there were definitely better reports coming in from the section below the bridge on down to Murphy’s Pond. Hopefully we’ll get some higher flows when the run-off starts and there will be more fish move up to the mile. Of the more successful reports we had most of them were drifting nymphs with just a few coming in on streamers. Some patterns that worked well yesterday: rainbow warrior, san juan worm, squirmy wormy, worm jig, perdigon, copper John, flashback emerger, drag queen, dead drift crayfish and sculpzilla.
