Rain overnight combined with directed release of 142 from Stilesville has brought up river levels. Cooler overnight  temps and cloud cover has been keeping the rivers cooler. We are still needing water but the levels are acceptable for boat and wade anglers. East branch is colored and doubled in flow from yesterday. The next few […]

HIGH WATER TEMPS! LOW RIVER LEVELS!  Give it a rest for a few days on the lower branches and Main Stem...Monitor the water temps where you intend to fish! Early morning will be your best bet for safer conditions but always check you thermometer before you wet your line. A break on this heat wave […]

a quick review over the past few days. monday was a very good day on the lower river in spite of the gale force winds and low water, fish were up randomly feeding on dry's. Tuesday did the same beat on the lower river, less wind, blizzard Caddis. A few Hendricksons and a meager spinnerfall. […]

Hendricksons are in the house! Multiple sightings throughout the system. Water levels dropping to summertime conditions. Temps are spot on and gin clear water. Tuesday was windy, Wed. looked to be perfect but the hatch never materialized on the lower west. Decent hatch on the main with opportunities to work on rising fish. Today should […]

Looks like the weather man had a bit of an issue getting that one right....concerning the weekend weather that is. A dominant northwest wind kept air temperatures quite chilly over the weekend in spite of the meager sunshine on Saturday and nearly lack of sunshine today. To say the least it was raw. Water levels […]

Good morning! And a great morning it is. Abundant sunshine and a beautiful weekend to look forward to. River levels and color are extraordinary! The forecast of abundant sunshine and moderate winds (NW, 8-12) should yield ample opportunities for anglers this weekend. A few blue quills have been spotted over the last couple days in […]

Cold and winter like conditions yesterday provided challenging opportunities to the anglers on the river. Winds were gusting out of the west northwest up to 30 miles an hour snow was accumulating and blowing sideways. Anglers challenging the conditions were able to connect on a few nice fish on small size 18 pheasant tails. A […]

Bugs have started, little stones, chimarra caddis, a few baetis. Rivers are in great shape. Some rain coming in this afternoon should bring the levels up slightly with good over night temps to keep the water temps creeping up. Weekend levels should be great! Fish are starting to feel in the mood. Rising water temps […]

All indications are winter 2015 is in the past. Spring conditions are prime. All rivers are in great shape, water clarity is perfect, a bit off color and that nice deep shade of green. Reports from around the system say fish are being taken underneath, on streamers and nymphs. Very little surface activity earlier this […]
