Water Conditions: Good
Flows are at ? cfs as of 3/10
The gauge at the bottom of PVR is on the fritz so don't freak out if the flows don't make sense. Flows are probably near 90 cfs.
Fishing Conditions and Hatches: Good-Very Good
Baetis hatches are picking up again and now go from about 1 until 3 or 4. The best action has been from 10 or 11 until 3 or 4 and the last couple of hours have been very good. THE CADDIS HATCH HAS STARTED TO SLOW DOWN. This hatch only lasts for a couple of weeks but is very intense. This can be an incredible hatch that has not been very good for a couple of years but signs are this will be a good year. One thing about this hatch, it is extremely localized. I have talked to other guides who have been on the river at the same time only 4 or 5 bends apart and one has a great day and the other one sees nothing. The bigger Stoneflies are now hatching, don't expect to see many adults but it doesn't matter, the fish are looking out for them.
