BUT
Reports from Ken’s Sporting Goods are promising. Below the 182 bridge is fishing okay, getting better the farther downstream you go. Mainly nymphing is working, but dry-dropper could provide decent success and the streamer fishing is picking up. One of our guides was up there a few days ago and said the fishing was good but outside of the strong Trico emergence and some scattered bigger caddis and midges, the hatches were weak. One of the other guides was up there on Tuesday and the water was very murky, but was fishing decently.
