The river flows have dropped a bit more and wading will be easier today. The weather will be similar to yesterday so the best shot at dry fly fishing will be the waning sulphur hatch in the coldest river sections. It’s coming to an end but people are still finding some bugs. Nymphing will be better on the lower river sections with less algae. Blind casting Isonychias, white flies, and golden drakes could work well in the broken water. If the fish won’t eat the dries try a dropper.
Today will be 74 degrees with cloud cover in the morning changing to partly cloudy in the afternoon. There is a very slight chance of a light rain shower. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the North.
