June 20, 2018
Flow: 580
Water Temp: 54-64
Sunday I had a trip with some great folks, Tom and Arthur, in the six hundreds with a great day of fishing and lessons in cold clear water. Today I went out to survey the river at 490 and had one of those exceptional days where the trout are willing, plentiful and hard fighting. These low flows this time of year should be worrisome but with the long winter we’ve had and a full lake above I don’t expext any problems. The fact is today is the first day of the summer I wet waded. The first step in I squealed like a wee lad but after the first hearty eighteen incher was in the net I didn’t feel much.
20 zebra midges were pretty exclusive today as the go to bug, even worn down to just black thread.
Get your trip on now when the flows down and as always, this two man crew needs your support.
Tight  lines,
Ben, Lou and always in our hearts Diamond
