The flows on the L.T. have dropped to 74 CFS after being in the 100-120 range for a month or so. Hopefully this is not a trend that the flows will be cut way down as fall approaches. 74 CFS is still really good flows for the Little Truckee. The water is cold, low and clear. A stealthy approach is a must. Our approach is 5 good casts will catch as many as 100 casts. There is still a fair PMD hatch in the middle of the day but it is on its way out. Nymphing is tough due to the amount of moss in the river. Check your flies often and try to keep them clean. Try to stay out of the water as much as possible; fish can be just about anywhere right now.
