Water Conditions: Good, the flows are at 29cfs as of 4/12. Gate is open and you can drive up to the parking lots.
Fishing Conditions and Hatches: Excellent we expect more of the same this coming week down at the creek. Stock up on Midge and Baetis patterns.
Depending on the temperatures you might be fishing midges all day if its cold. If it warms up, the mayflies are still popping but keep your eyes open because the hatch doesn't last for very long.
Recommended Flies:
DRIES: CDC Baetis Dun #18-#20, CDC Baetis Emerger #20, Extended Body BWO #22, Hatch Matcher BWO #18-#20
NYMPHS: BH FB Pheasant Tail #18-20, Hogan's S&M Nymph #18-20, PT Cruiser #18, Barr's Flashback Emerger #20, Tungsten Psycho #18-20, Flashback Hare's Ear #18, Crystal Hunchback Baetis #22, Split Case BWO #20, WD-40 Black #22, Zebra Midge #22, Flashy WD-40 Black or Olive #20-22
STREAMERS: Water isn't deep enough to really bother
