August 16th Fishing Report

A 40 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 83. South wind 5 to 8 mph becoming east in the afternoon. New rainfall amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible.
1/10th of an inch more or less fell area wide in the past 12 hours. Nothing will be muddied up. The benefit to these spotty rains is cloud cover. Even with the air temperature being a bit balmy the next few days, if the sun stays off the water, it prevents the creeks from heating up too quickly! That is KEY this time of year. If the water can remain temperature stable in the middle to low 60s then fishing will remain solid most of the day.
. Hoppers with a dropper are the ticket right now. We are also still seeing some trico spinners first thing in the morning as well.
Looking forward to next week, things look to cool down significantly mid to late next week. Mark your calendars and maybe take a sick day or two if we get overnight temps in the high 50s like they are predicting….
