FishingGoodWaterClearHatchesMidges, BWOs

Dam releases are swinging between roughly 1,900 and 2,800 cfs, and the water is clear unless Red Creek is running dirty after a storm.

Fish nymphs and midges in the deeper seams, and work streamers along the banks and drop-offs on cloudy days. The browns are spawning, so it is a good time to look but please don't fish to them on the beds.
