Confirmation from people observing the hoards along the river at the Hwy 4 bridge, across from Carson River Resort, Buggers in olive or black, Caddis are hatching, PMD's and BWO's of course the hoppers are all over the place and also the ants. I'd certainly skate a stimulator in yellow or orange. Para-madam X in yellow or chartreuse. Nymphing: micro mayfly, EC caddis, PT, hare's ear, little yellow stone, caddis pupa, san Juan's. Catch & Release section (downstream at Hangman's Bridge), Like the water above, nice flows. The reports that we've gotten is that it's still a bit slow.. Walk away from the parking lot. Go further down stream. Start watching for the snakes trying to cool off in the water Same bug patterns as above.
Flows: average 79 cfs this week, just 20 cfs below median flow. above Hangman's (along hwy 89/4) Rumors and hearsay were true, that the river would be stocked this week.
