Water Conditions:
The road to the Red's Meadow/Devil's Post pile area is NOW OPEN. Water is flowing fast and high, but clear and fishable presently.

Fishing Conditions and Hatches:
The fishing is not easy yet... Look for fish in back waters, and eddies. Midges and a few larger mayflies showing up. I would try highsticking the seams around the faster water.

Recommended Flies:
Nymph fishing most productive but dries are also working midday. #10 micro stone, #16 Copper John and Cahill's, Humpies in 12- 16's, Prince Nymphs 12-16's, P.T's 12-16's, black A.P.'s 12'16

Guide's Hint: If you not hooking fish, try still water nymphing at the outlet of Sotcher Lake.
