Daily Report

Over the weekend we had decent weather conditions for this time of year with the temperature reaching into the mid 30's. We did not speak with many anglers, but the few anglers we spoke with reported getting into fish both in the upper and lower end of the river. We currently have fish spread out in the river from top to bottom with a mix of fresh fish entering the river and fish holding in the normal winter areas. The upper and lower end of the river has been getting the most fishing pressure on a daily basis, if your willing to walk and looking for some solitude the mid section of river would be a good choice. Anglers who are fly fishing have been having the most success dead drifting with nymphs and small streamers or indicator fishing with egg patterns. For those anglers who are bottom bouncing or float fishing, pink and blue egg sacs, beads, marabou jigs and pink worms have all produced results. 

Suggested patterns:

Nymphs;  Steelhead Hammer, Prince nymphs, Rubber legged stones, Beadhead stones, Pheasant tails. 

Eggs; Sucker spawn, Estaz eggs, Steelie Omelette, Glo-bugs, Steak-n-eggs.

Streamers; Woolly buggers, Rusher nymphs, Egg sucking leeches, Zonkers, Stonefly buggers.
