The river is flowing at 85 cfs today and has been there for almost a week now. The fishing has been great! With the stormy weather lately there has been some pretty good dry action though it can be a little hit and miss on the surface. Sometimes they'll be looking up for 10 or 20 minutes and other times the surface action will last an hour or more, you just need to be ready.

Nymphing has still been the most productive and at this flow there are fish spread out in lots of places so they're not pretty easy to find.

Some patterns for you to try include: silver streak, wd-40, flashback emerger, mercers midgeling, para adams, blue winged olive, griffiths gnat, micro stones. The Rosachi has been a little tough lately from what I've heard though there are still some fish being caught down there.
