Water Conditions: Good, showing a cfs of 4 on 1/24
Flows are not accurate due to icing , OR , they just rebuilt the shed at the weir so it might be down for some time.
Nothing new to mention, the weather has been schizophrenic, one day nice next day you can't stand up. The midge hatches are always big but the midday mayfly hatches have been getting stronger. The problem is that there is no consistency from day to day, one day great dry fly action the next day you won't see a rise. Fishing has been good and if you drive down into the canyon it will be less crowded. If you're looking for dry fly action the interpretive site is the most consistent but the canyon can have some excellent surface activity late morning. I did get a report today from a customer who fished with the egg pattern I had sold him for the Owens and did quite well, go figure. The road is snow free and the trails have some snow on them.
