Water Conditions: Good as of 7/6 the flows are steady at 65cfs.
Fishing Conditions and Hatches: Good the flows and weather are perfect for wet wading. Be advised I saw plenty of mud snails hanging on my pants the other day when I got off the water so clean your gear and help prevent the spead of this invasive species. Big Trico hatch early in the morning, with a spattering of Caddis as well throughout the day. Go deep and heavy. Concentrate on fishing the deeper bend pools with a significant ammount of weight. Mainly attractor patterns like a worm or a coachmen.
