Fishing Conditions

It’s a good flow right now and fish will be a little less spooky with the higher flows.

An attractor nymph with a smaller midge or baetis nymph dropped below would not be a bad way to start out the day.  Watch for BWO hatches too.

Buggers, leeches, and small streamers would not be a bad choice either.

Annelids in 18-22.  San Juan Worms, Egg patterns, Bunny Leeches 8-12 in White, Grey, Olive, Black.

Midges 20-26: Black Flash Midge Pupa, Tav’s Big Mac, Bling Midge.
