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. It is on the drop?Ķ

Fishing Conditions and Hatches:
The fishing is picking up. Look for fish in back waters, slow water and eddies. Mayflies and large stoneflies are showing up. DFG has stocked the camp grounds but the fish are getting hit hard. Make sure you get good drifts and good presentation. Keep moving if you're not getting into fish.

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: Bring bug spray!!! At this time of year, look for the pools, and work them with dries AND nymphs
