Hatch Status

Fall Baetis should be very good with cool weather, also pinks, flavs, and caddis

Conditions

Flows have dropped and are stabilizing around 300 cfs, opening this up as a wade-fishing paradise for the week ahead. Water temperature sits at 56°F as of September 16, prime conditions for fall fishing. Expect Fall Baetis to be very good, along with pinks, flavs, and caddis. Fish will be spooky in the shallow seams next to holding water, so approach with care.
