The East is still running at 590 cfs today, it's been at that flow for a week or so. The fishing is still pretty good with small midge patterns and caddis nymphs. We've had a couple decent reports on streamers but it's been mainly nymphing.
A couple things to keep in mind when fishing at this higher flow is to pick the water you want to fish carefully, fish the softer seams and foam lines when you can, also don't walk straight into the water without fishing your way in, there's often fish hugging the bank on your way in that you'll just move out and not have a chance at.
A few patterns that have been working include, buckskin caddis, z-wing caddis, fox's poopah, LaFontaines sparkle pupa, 3-wire caddis, gb caddis, rainbow warriors, san juan worms, flashback emergers, copper johns.
The Rosachi section is much tougher to fish at this flow than the Cali side hence we haven't had much for reports from down there.
