Hatch Status

Morning fishing with female Trico duns on the water, followed by a spinner fall.

Conditions

Silver Creek is running stable at 98 cfs with water temperature at 58°F, ideal conditions for a productive week ahead. Morning fishing will be your best bet, with variable Trico hatches that peak early and fade as the day warms. As conditions settle, transition to Baetis, PMDs, and Callibaetis, or switch to damsels and terrestrials once surface activity slows.

Gauges

Techniques

  • Try Damsels or Callibaetis spinners on the few remaining surface feeders once the morning feed subsides.
  • Nymphing before and after the hatch activity is decent.
  • If the wind blows, shorten your leader and try your favorite terrestrial (beetles, ants, or hoppers).
