Fishing Report & Conditions: ?

LARGE FISH KILL RECENTLY CAUSED BY OVERABUNDANCE OF CO2.

BUT

Reports from Ken's Sporting Goods are progressively more promising. Below the 182 bridge is fishing alright, but it's getting better the further downstream you go - Predominantly nymphing but dry-droppers and streamers may bring some luck.
