The river is running about 130 cfs today. The fishing down there has still been pretty good, there has been some good cloud cover and thunderstorms most evenings this past week so that is really helping keep the temperatures down on the river which in turn keeps the fish healthy and happy. Caddis nymphs are still the bugs of choice as well as small midge patterns. There has also been some decent dry action, a little in the mornings and some in the evenings when it’s not too windy or rainy. Still haven’t had any news on any streamer action, I’d expect the streamer action to get better later in the season when it gets colder and the caddis start to go away. 

Patterns to try: Rainbow warrior, silver streak, san juan worm, squirmy wormy, micro mayflies, top secret midge, darth baetis, buckskin caddis, dark lord, copper John, LaFontaines deep sparkle pupa, z-wing caddis, Fox’s poopah, razor caddis, elk hair caddis, E/C caddis, parachute adams, blue dun, pale morning dun.
