We have cloud cover now with some rain coming around lunch time. Total precipitation should only be around 1/10″ so we should come through just fine. Olives and caddis are making up most of the bugs we’re seeing out there. There are still some isonychias but we’ll see fewer as the temps drop. The West Branch is still coming out of the dam off color and looks geed for streamer fishing. Keep in mind the Upper West Branch from Cannonsville Dam to Monument is closed. The East Branch from Pepacton Dam to Shinopple Bride is also closed.
