The EW is still fishing pretty well, the flows are up to 85 cfs today after a bit of bouncing around through the week. Caddis are still coming off, as well as lots of midges. Water temps are still in the mid 60's which is definitely helping out the fish down there. Lots of fish in the 14 to 18 inch range are being landed with a few going over 20 here and there. The Nevada side of the river is also fishing very well right now, lots of nice rainbows and browns down there on both the Sceirine and Rosachi sections. Recommended flies include: zebra midge, prince nymph, flashback emerger, wd-40, mercury midge, buckskin caddis, fox's poopah, lafontaines deep sparkle pupa, 3-wire caddis, dead drift crayfish, elk hair caddis, e/c caddis, stimulator, madam x, para hopper, stacker hopper.
