Flow has inched up to 129 cfs over the last week and the water is clear and cold.

Don\'t forget the section from Benton Crossing down to the monument is closed to all fishing.

Fishing Conditions and Hatches:

Bite is 10 am to 2 pm, maybe 3 pm on warmer days. Fish are stuck to the bottom for the most part so dredge midges early and bigger, buggy stuff midday and be sure to get your flies down to them.

There is a baetis hatch most days but of short duration.
