The flows on the EW are 108 cfs today. We're still getting mostly good reports from the river, lots of action on nymphs and dries, and only a couple decent reports on streamers.

The upper mile has been great though a bit crowded at times, the section between the bridge and Murphy's Pond is also fishing excellent and typically a little less crowded. The Rosachi section has had some good reports and some slow reports, it seems to change up a bit day to day.

Fly patterns to try on the river include: zebra midge, wd-40, silver streak, flashback emerger, gt emerger, disco midge, fox's poopah, deep sparkle pupa, 3-wire caddis, z-wing caddis, outrigger caddis, ext. body bwo, para adams.
