The river is in amazing shape. Some isolated dry fly fishing for sure. Searching with the dry fly has been OK at best, but there are certainly some fish looking for March Browns and the like specifically between 1-3 pm.
Make sure to stop by the shop and pick up supplies at our ‘Covid Friendly Drive Thru’ Did I just say that?
We will most like see a bump in river flows this coming weekend due to some warmer weather but it appears the weather will be cooling down next week according to Mr Weather. Barring any major heat wave the 2020 run off should be reasonable and we will most likely be able to fish through it, with a slight hick up here and there.
