Showers likely, with thunderstorms also possible after 4pm. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 63. Breezy, with a south wind 11 to 17 mph, with gusts as high as 29 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New rainfall amounts of less than a tenth of an inch, except higher amounts possible in thunderstorms.
A small rain storm is (hopefully) blowing into the area tonight. We really need the rain as creeks are very low. Cloud cover and wind will increase as the day goes on.
It is supposed to rain a bit tonight, then start to clear out tomorrow leaving a calm and sunny weekend.
We are still seeing blue winged olive mayflies and black caddis in the afternoons. The water temperature is chilly in the early mornings, then climbing to 50 degrees in the afternoon. Most of the hatch activity is when the water temperature is close to 50 degrees.

Mostly sunny, with a high near 58. Calm wind becoming southeast 5 to 9 mph in the morning.
Conditions are great right now. While the creek could be a bit higher (we really need some rain!) fish are very happy. Normally they are in the deeper runs in the mornings and will happily feed on scuds, caddis larvae, and flashy nymphs subsurface. Around mid day (or earlier on sunny days like today) they move into the riffles to feed on the caddis and mayflies hatching. It is still chilly at night, so there is no need to get up at the crack of dawn. It is a 9-5 fishery right now.

Cloudy, then gradually becoming mostly sunny, with a high near 51. Breezy, with a northwest wind 18 to 21 mph, with gusts as high as 33 mph.
Not much different from the past few days. The winds are making fishing (especially dry fly fishing) more difficult. We are seeing olives and black caddis in the afternoons, and the subsurface fishing game is strong on pretty much everything right now!
We are on the lookout for the creek lamprey spawning anytime now as well.
Creeks are clear and low with temperatures in the mid 40s to just about 50 degrees.

A 30 percent chance of showers, mainly after 5pm. Increasing clouds, with a high near 53. Breezy, with a west wind 15 to 23 mph, with gusts as high as 38 mph.
Creeks are in good shape, clear but low with temperatures in the mid to high 40s. With some warmer weather we will probably see the 50 degree temperature mark a few times late this week.
Blue winged olive mayflies are still hatching well in the afternoon, as are black caddis. Watch for risers mostly after lunchtime, although on cloudier days the mayflies can spread out through most of the day.
Subsurface fishing is bug soup. Mostly anything will work with a good drift below a riffle right now. Streamers are starting to catch more fish as the water temps are warm enough for trout to chase larger meals (and for the larger meals to be moving around)

Mostly sunny, with a high near 62. South wind 5 to 14 mph, with gusts as high as 24 mph.
Creeks are clear and low with temperatures in the mid to high 40s.
Olives are hatching on most creeks in the afternoons, and we are expecting to see the caddis hatch at any time, especially as things slowly warm up.
Subsurface fishing has been good on larger nymphs and leeches in the mornings, followed by small thin bodied bugs in the riffles in the afternoon and evenings.

Patchy fog before 8am. Otherwise, partly sunny, with a high near 54. Calm wind becoming north around 5 mph.
Creeks clear and low. Water temps are mid to high 40s, we are almost to the 50 degree mark which is classically the start of the caddis hatch.
Fishing low and slow in the mornings in the deeper runs, then moving into shallower water as the day progresses.
We are seeing olives in the afternoons, the spring stoneflies are still around, and we are expecting caddis to start anytime now.
Subsurface fishing has started to be more successful on thinner bodied bugs like perditions and midge larvae. However, the leech and micro streamer fishing is still strong.

Isolated showers. Patchy fog before 10am. Otherwise, mostly cloudy, with a high near 50. Southeast wind around 7 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%.
Creeks are clear and low, with temperatures in the high 40s area wide.
The cloud cover today will help the already strong olive hatch. While the mayflies are not present everywhere and all the time, we are seeing rising fish and hatching bugs mostly in the later afternoons pretty consistently. If olive colored bugs aren’t working, try purple!
Subsurface fishing will also pick up with the cloud cover this morning. Scuds, mini leeches, and caddis larvae are all solid right now.
The caddis hatch is not here yet, but with the warmer weekend approaching, we may start to see a few appear here and there.

Sunny, with a high near 45. Calm wind becoming west around 6 mph in the afternoon.
Even in yesterday’s cold and high wind, the olives were hatching well! Today is much more stable weather wise. We’re seeing fish being a bit sluggish in the early mornings, then starting to feed subsurface as the sun warms the water a bit. Finally, in the afternoon trout are making the push into the riffles to feed on emerging olives. (don’t be afraid of fishing an unweighted leech in the riffles during the hatch, you could be surprised!)
Creeks are clear overall with water temps in the mid to high 40s.

A chance of flurries, mixing with sprinkles after 2pm, then gradually ending. Mostly sunny, with a high near 38. Breezy, with a north wind 8 to 13 mph increasing to 15 to 20 mph in the morning. Winds could gust as high as 29 mph.
A bit of a chilly start to the week with some gusty winds. Things calm down mid week.
The fishing has been quite good lately. Creeks are clear with water temperatures in the mid 40s on average. We’re still finding the fishing better in the later morning after things have warmed up a bit, and into the afternoon when we are seeing blue winged olives hatching.
Subsurface fishing remains solid all day long.

Mostly cloudy, then gradually becoming sunny, with a high near 44. Breezy, with a northwest wind 13 to 16 mph, with gusts as high as 29 mph.
Tomorrow (Sunday) will be a bit warmer and sunnier.
Creeks are clear and low with temperatures in the mid to high 40s. The afternoons have given us some olive hatches and we are still seeing some spring stoneflies. It is still a bit early for the caddis hatch, we need warmer water temperatures for those to appear.
The fish are in pretty favorable moods, feeding well subsurface on a mix of flashy nymphs, leeches and small streamers. They are in the thigh deep water with cover early in the morning, then pushing up into the riffles and shallower water in the afternoon as the hatches begin to come off.
