Water Conditions: Good the flows are at 24cfs as of 7/6. Water is very clear and low when compared to this time last year. Weeds are growing in now bigtime.

Fishing Conditions and Hatches: Good with a big Trico hatch early in the morning. Followed by Caddis into the evening. Hopper season has arrived! Fish the far bank and slap it on the water so it makes some noise. Nymphing is getting tougher as the weeds grow in and the water drops.
