We were hit with some rain showers in the late afternoon and again overnight but the river flows barely bumped. We should see another 1/4″ today but that shouldn’t be enough to change anything. The East Branch, West Branch, and Mainstem are all at good levels. This looks like another good day for blue wing olives. We should also see some Isonychias, cahills, and hebes. Some river sections have had decent flushes of Isos this week. The West Branch has that greenish tint we get in the Fall but it doesn’t bother the fish or the bugs. It may actually help mask tippet on presentations.
Today will be 70 degrees with clouds and rain showers. Total rainfall should be .25″. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the South.
