Not much has changed here this fall. The flows are very low and you will find half the normal water that you are accustomed to fishing here weed free, or deep enough to make extended drifts. Fishing is good in the deeper sections with a strong baetis hatch well after lunch. Small midges are also a good choice, especially as the weather continues to cool. Access remains very good as of 11-13-12.
