Flow: (yes, 76)

Water temp: 61-65

With construction going on the water can turn black in a moment if the backhoes are working upstream and so far, we have not seen any fish kill because of the high turbidity.  With these unusual low flows for summer we are fishing early to ensure the trout stay healthy and it’s working.  Wet wading is very comfortable. The early bite has been good  with BH Pheasant Tail SZ 18, SZ 20 Grey BH midge and the ubiquitous san juan worm. If you travel here to fish plan for changing conditions and fish early and cover a lot of water. Today the big trout preferred mid fast seams at around three feet deep.

As always we want to thank our guests that have made this such a fun ride.

Tight lines,

Ben and Lou
