A word on the heat next week…

Early next week is not looking good at all!  There is actually an extreme heat watch for Monday and Tuesday, with highs in the upper 90s and nights not dropping below 70 degrees.

The streams will warm up quickly and stay warm, the fishing will slow down considerably, and it can be downright dangerous for humans to be out in the sun much less the stress it can cause trout.

If you have an option, we highly recommend skipping trout fishing next week.  If you are out there, please use your thermometer (anything over 65 degrees water temp will be poor fishing) and fish super early in the day to take advantage of a little better water temperatures.  And, stay shaded, hydrated and safe in the heat!
