The East is running around 300 cfs this past few days and still fishing pretty well. We've had some reports of some killer fish in the high 20's both being caught and lost! Mainly still caddis nymphs and small midge patterns, though we have had a few good streamer reports and dry reports. Some patterns that have been effective are: dead-drift crawfish, zuddlers, zonker, bh caddis, fox's poopah, lafontaines caddis, micro mayfly, silver streak, zebra midge, flashback emerger, elk hair caddis, e/c caddis, blue wing olive. For the Rosachi you can go with crayfish, birds nest, prince, pheasant tail.
