Not a lot of change, with some streams down a bit and others up a bit. Expect springtime snow, ice and muddy driving conditions into many of these streams. With colder water temperatures expect stream fishing to be slow. Fish the deeper pools and slower water (if open) where the fish hang out this time of year to conserve energy. As of March 17, The East Fork of the Owyhee River near Mountain City was showing ice at the gauging station but expect flows around 30 cfs.
