Water Conditions: Good the flows are at 28cfs as of 6/28. Water is very clear and fairly low when compared to this time last year. Weeds are growing in now bigtime.
Fishing Conditions and Hatches: Good Hopper season has arrived! Fish the far bank and slap it on the water so it makes some noise. Takes have been very subtle, so try and use the smallest and most sensative indicator you can use and try to shorten your drifts. Yarn is usually best when the water is this clear and slow.

DRIES: Parachute Caddis Grey #18, Brook's Hot Creek Caddis #18-20, Elk Hair Caddis Tan #18, Mercer's Missing Link # 18, Old School Caddis Emerger Olive #18-20, Grasshoppers, Fat Albert #14

STREAMERS: #12 Bead Head Doc's Twin Lake Special Black
Guides Hint: Drag free drifts are essential to catching fish now.
