The river from the dam down through the Conservancy is looking great with some turbidity just below the dam. The tributaries are clearing it up quite a bit and it is fishing fantastic. Best flies right now are Olive Hotspots, Sweet Peas, and Frenchies. We are entering Stonefly season and Salmonflies continue to come off in good numbers, brown Chubby Chernobyls in #8 are great for hopper/dropper rigs and you can even possibly get takes on the Chubby. Towards dark fish the glassy sides of the river with your big dries. Keep your eyes open for Green Drakes, the Jigged Green Drake, Hunchback GD, and Mercer's Poxyback GD will work great for fish eating in runs below the fast water. To reserve a day with one of our expert guides to experience one of the most picturesque streams in the north state, call Chris or Bryan in Outfitters at 800-669-3474.
