Not much has changed on the East this past week, the flows are still at around 550cfs, it’s still getting some angling traffic but not really that much. The anglers who are more used to fishing the higher flows are definitely having some success with some nice fish being caught mostly on streamers but some on nymphs and a few on dries. One of the keys to success with the higher flows is to search out the calmer water near the banks that is holding fish and that you can get a drift into. It’s not easy by any means but it can be very good if you fish it right. Some patterns to try: sculpzilla, ziwi, Dali Lama, zuddler, dead drift crayfishg, double bunny, hornberg, perdigon nymph, buckskin caddis, Fox’s poopah, deep sparkle pupa, hoppers, ants, elk hair caddis and E/C caddis.
