We were hit with a quick thunderstorm yesterday that added some runoff to the eastern drainage. The West Branch is starting this morning pretty much where it was yesterday. There is some fog on the river now but it looks like it will burn off quickly. Today looks a little better from a weather standpoint with cloud cover and a much cooler air temp at 70 degrees. Wind will be up a bit at 10 – 15 mph from the North so keep that in mind while picking your spot. Small olives are still the main hatch but people are doing well with Isonychias and cahills in the riffles. Some river sections are still seeing some white flies in the evening.
