Low Water fishing on the Gunpowder.

The Gunpowder is flowing at 28cfs and gin clear. Water temperatures are starting out at 54 degrees and rising to the 60 degree mark at the warmest part of the day. Thanks to Stefan for the following report & photos. With low water conditions on the gunpowder fishing has been tough. With that being said fish still have to eat and fishing long 10-13 foot leaders tapering to 6 or 7x will get them to do just that. Ants and beetles will draw the most consistent dry fly action in the heat of the day, if you are fishing in the morning or evening a …

Rain and clear water on the Gunpowder

Thanks to Gene for the fishing report and photos. The Gunpowder is stable at 42 cfs, clear and starting the day at 54 degrees. Following the push of water last week the river is back down to summer flows. Tributaries will add a little color to the river downstream from Falls Rd. Despite that the river is relatively clear until Little Falls at Bluemount Rd. Fishing with beetles, ants and small hoppers has been productive in the mornings especially. Small caddis size 18’s are coming off in the mornings and evenings. Tricos have been inconsistent as of yet this season.
