Water levels are declining, though the water level is at the refuges objective for this time of year. The springs are producing very little water, so trout fishing has dropped off. Some fish are being caught from the dikes, but for the most part, they are too small to keep. Anglers who know the marsh are catching limits, while those new to the marsh are catching a fair number of smaller fish, but not a lot of keepers. While the water level is still fairly good, the weed growth at the Narciss boat landing is making launching difficult, though not impossible, there. The same colors and presentations are working as always with black, motoroil, chartreuse and other fluorescent colors working. Flies include dragon fly nymphs, leach patterns, wooly buggers and bear hair streamers. The big problem has been the winds, so make sure your battery is fully charged or use your gas motor as the winds have been coming on strong in the afternoons.
