Fishing Conditions

Flows are low and attractor dry/droppers are a good go-to.

This time of year is always good to carry a few Spruce Moth patterns with you.

Start fishing early for the best fishing.  When water temps reach over 66 in the afternoons (carry a thermometer) call it quits until it cools down.
