| The
Cedar |
The
river is in PRIME shape! 480 CFS @ Landsburg. Try nymphing streamers!
Be sure to let your fly dangle at the end of the drift! Early afternoon
has been very productive, try finding some nice riffly water with
some shape and structure and skate a rubber legged #12 yellow or tan
stimulator with a gold ribbed hares ear dropper! If you catch a nice
trout, rest the water and try for his big brother! These fish like
to pod up in small numbers. There is also a nice mid-afternoon grey
drake hatch worth mentioning and decent evening mayfly action. Late
evening wake a small stimi near log jams near some nice water and
you’ll fool some of the cutthroats!

| The
MF Snoqualmie |
The
Middle Fork Snoqualmie is still running a bit high for it to real
productive. Currently,
it is more prime for rafters and kayakers. It is OK fishing right
now and we saw anglers out fishing with some success, but the PRIME
TIME water is yet to arrive...we predict around July 4th and on.
The water is high, a bit off color and cold, so the wading is not
ideal yet. The South Fork is fishing a bit better near I-90 Exit
34/ Twin Falls State Park and the Rattle Snake Lake Road / Bridge
area.
As
you drive up the road, there are signs that might prompt you to
turn around (road closures) and go home, but the road is open all
the way up 9 miles to the Middle Fork Campground. The bridge to
the Taylor River is washed out just past the MF campground. See
the photos!
