August 27th Fishing Report
Showers and thunderstorms, mainly before 2pm. Patchy fog before 10am. High near 83. East wind 7 to 11 mph becoming south in the afternoon. Winds could gust as high as 20 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New rainfall amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible.The heavy rains that were predicted to hit us last night missed leaving quite a few creeks in clear to slightly stained shape. We still got about an inch of rain area wide. If we do not get significantly more things will stay stable and fishable. We are due for a few more potential rain storms through the next few hours and into tomorrow a bit with the major stuff forecasted for the morning. If anything turns sour, we will let you know!
As of now, stick with fishing hopper/dropper but change your dropper flies to larger profile. Scuds, pink squirrels, even worm patterns work after these rains. If you are finding some murky water, drive to another valley and take a look. You can be surprised at the amount of fishable water out there even after these rain events!
