The river flows have peaked and are beginning to drop throughout the system. The lower West Branch is much clearer this morning. Visibility is fine and the flow is great for both floating and wading. We have thick fog in spots but that should burn off mid morning. Small olives are still the main hatch with patchy Isonychias. Nymphing and blind casting the riffles will both be good bets mid day. We’ll see a mix of sun and clouds with a high of 75 degrees. Wind will be 10 – 15 mph from the north so choose your spot accordingly.
