Fishing Conditions
The cold snap has put the fish in a bit of a shock, but with daytime temps in the mid thirties to 40s mid week, they will be on the feed again. Small brown stones, red worms, and caddis larvae have been good bugs for the past couple weeks. Large dark buggers or other streamer patterns fished deep and slow have also picked up some good fish.
