The South Fork is Dropping into Shape

Kenny Priest

The South Fork is dropping into shape, and could fish by the weekend or early next week at the latest. Flows are looking decent, but the color will depend on what’s coming out of the East Branch. Above Benbow will clear first and should be green by the weekend, but it will be pushy. Flows are predicted right around 2,000 cfs on the Miranda gauge on Saturday morning.
