The river is flowing a measured 850 CFS and the turbidity gage is showing just a blush of color. For those who like to swing, now would be a good time to get out the micro-Spey and give it a shot as there are large Rainbows heading up from the lake. Sculpins should be on the menu for the lakers, Barr's Slumpbuster in olive and black are two good options, a Dalai Lama in olive & white or The Mob in olive are other good patterns. Up top above Simms the small black flies, #18-20 black Zebra Midges, the BP Weiss nymphs, Jigged X-Mays and any Perdigon you have in your box will work well. Blue Wing Olives and midges will be good nymphs to try in the mornings, olive and black X-Mays and S&Ms along with the BP Weiss Nymph and Olive Hotspots.
