The water has dropped steadily since Tuesday night.The river is in great shape. Flow is in the mid-200’s and should drop a bit more by the weekend. On a guide trip yesterday, Jeff Lewatowski watched a monster Brown eat a bluegill. How’s that for streamer action?  Best bets with the water up are heavy patterns like the Whitlock Near Nuff Sculpin in Olive sized #4-8. Bead head pheasant tails have taken their share of fish this season and don’t forget to bring a few hoppers. A #20 BWO tied behind a Cabes Hopper might be just the tonic for the post storm blues.

Sooo, The shop has power. The water is fine, and if you need a shower bring some soap.The water is cold enough you might not need that cup of coffee. The river is at 150Cfs and dropping. Olives and caddis are still producing.Some just in had a bad case of streamer fever.Wooly buggers size 10 and 12 should work fine.Bigger fish this week reported throughout the river-and they are hungry-won’t you help?

Mighty nice weather happening-at least until Thursday. We’ve already had a few in this morning that called in sick-a few wild fish on the end of their lines should cure them.  Fish were rising just above Falls Rd this morning. A #12 elk hair or #14 stimulator with a #18-#22 BWO behind it has accounted for a bunch of fish this week. Water is clear, around 104 Cfs-a great wading level and about 57 F.

Quite a few nice fish over 14″ have been caught this week. Stop by the shop and ask us how. The water has warmed up to around 59 F and is clear. Small dries and bead head pheasant tails continue to produce. With the rain coming, San Juan worms and small streamers are a good bet.

This Saturday two fish were caught at the same time by a lucky angler. She was fishing a #12 Stimulator with a #18 BWO as a dropper. The river is beautiful, water is clear, water temp is 54 F and we are hearing reports of fish being caught on small dries throughout the catch and release section.
