The West Branch looks to be in great shape! Flows are about perfect for both wade and drift boat fishing right now and the temperatures are very favorable. Olives have produced some decent surface activity and some fishing action, particularly on the upper sections of the West Branch. Today may be a little windy, but should be a nice day; and for the next two, calm and sunny. Look for the insect activity to pick up over the next few days…
