Water Conditions: Fair the flows are at 205 cfs as of 11/8.

Fishing Conditions and Hatches: Well, the moment we've all been waiting for has arrived. Flows are now prime for wading. If it gets fairly cold down there, Tricos may be finished. For right now though we're still fishing Baetis patterns from mid-morning on.
