Water Conditions: Good the flows are at 30 cfs as of 9/5. Wear bug spray! Recent rains in the high country have replenished small ponds for mosquitos to lay their eggs.

Fishing Conditions and Hatches: Good it is better to hike in a little bit to get away from everybody else. Some of the lakes along the trail are fishing very well in the early evening at inlets and outlets. Or go way down below the lake and fish below the campgrounds. Big and bright usually does the trick here.
