Fish Report for 7-25-2024

Cooling Weather and Drop in Flows at Owens

7-25-2024
The Trout Fitter Staff

Flows & Water Conditions: Fair

Clarity: Slightly off-color

CFS: 304

Fishing Report & Conditions: Fair-Good

Hopefully with this cooling weather and the big drop in flows somebody (maybe even me) will venture out this weekend and provide a report. The normal summer pattern is: micro Caddis emergence starting around 6 AM, female Trico emergence around 7 AM, and the Trico spinner fall from 9-10 AM. Remember that fish will eat the dead spinners for many hours after the fall stops. PMD hatches are occurring around 11 AM. Later in the summer, the tiny BWO 11 occur mid-afternoon. Caddis emergence, male Trico emergence, and Caddis egg-laying occur in the evening.
