We are coming off a very cool night which helped the river temperatures this morning. While we are enjoying temps in the 50’s right now the sun is poking through and we are looking at high 70’s by late afternoon. The bonus of the weather today looks like wind gusts at 5 mph- finally no wind! Nymphing the riffles will be the best option during the day but keep an eye out for the occasional slash at a caddis. Towards dark look for sulphurs, stenos, and Isonychias- don’t leave the river early
Some of the Isonychias are huge!
