Yesterday really felt like Spring was here and the warm overnight temperatures helped keep the water temps in the high 30s and low 40s this morning. We had a little rain but the rivers look about the same this morning with a little color still coming in from the feeder creeks. The Upper West Branch will offer the best nymphing opportunity today while the rest of the system looks great for streamers. Since the water temperatures are still low fish slow and methodically. We should hit the high 40’s to low 50’s today with some decent rains on the way- much needed rain for the reservoirs!
Jared landed a couple of browns on the West Branch last night.
