Report

Rain really brought the water up around 0 yesterday.  Lots of kayakers in the gorge area.  Water murked up a bit... fish less skittish.  Still need 6-7x, though, and excellent presentations.  Weather warm with strong front approaching.  Perfect.  Should be very good for a few days.  Fish very hungry with large catch rates reported.  Flies are still nymphs mostly.  Rainbow Prince Flashback #16 really strong fly in tandem with BWO lead fly.  Fish healthy and fat.  Some 23-24" being reported regularly, but most still 14-16.  Fish have moved south a bit to deeper water in search of warmer water and new food.  Try south end of mill area.
