Fishing conditions:  Good

Report: We have warming weather, this year has seen relatively little snow, and this means the salmonflies and golden stones will be coming off soon. PMDs and caddis should also be popping. Anglers fishing the Powerhouse 2 Riffle are reporting good fishing, but we would also like to take this chance to remind folks who fish the Powerhouse 2 riffle that the wild trout spawn in this section. Use caution to stay off of any redds and let the fish do their thing so we have a healthy fish population.
