April 20th Fishing Report
Showers and thunderstorms before noon, then showers likely and possibly a thunderstorm between noon and 1pm, then a chance of showers and thunderstorms after 1pm. High near 62. Breezy, with a light southeast wind becoming south 13 to 18 mph in the morning. Winds could gust as high as 31 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New rainfall amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible.That's a long winded way of saying it is going to drizzle and lightly rain throughout the day. Typically this will do nothing to muddy up the creeks and we should continue to see clear to stained water area wide.
Yesterday was surprising as the snowmelt did not get heavy enough to mess with the fishing. We had olives hatching all day (and we could see that again today with the clouds) and happy trout eating dries and emergers in the riffles and runs.
The clouds look like they will stay in the area until early next week. While it can feel miserable for anglers, trout and aquatic insects typically love this weather.
