Fishing Report

Showers and thunderstorms before 1pm, then showers and possibly a thunderstorm, mainly after 1pm. High near 61. Breezy, with a southeast wind 18 to 23 mph, with gusts as high as 39 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New rainfall amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible.
Creeks are clear and still a bit low with temperatures right around 50.
We are still waiting for just a bit of a bump in water temperature and a sunny day to see our caddis hatch. You can still get fish to eat caddis emergers and larvae, but we need just a bit of sun for the full on hatch to appear. The rocks are full of larvae waiting to go!
In the meantime, we are still finding fish happily eating larger size 12-14 parachutes as well as some foam patterns on the surface. Both of these flies we are fishing with bead heads below. From zebra midges to scuds and even micro leeches, subsurface is where the action is right now.
Streamers are also solid as the overcast weather has trout in a bit more aggressive mood.

A slight chance of showers before 1pm, then a slight chance of showers after 2pm. Cloudy, with a high near 47. East wind 9 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 24 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%.
Although it just doesn’t sound pleasant on paper, the fish are still pretty happy in the afternoons when things warm up a bit. The mornings are slow as we wait for temperatures to climb a bit (they have been climbing as much as 4-5 degrees lately!)
Caddis will show up again if we ever see the sun. Even brief windows of sun have given us a few black caddis hatching. They are all over the rocks right now just waiting for a bit warmer and sunnier day. We have had good success fishing larger (12-14) parachutes with a small dropper as well as darker colored (brown, olive, black) foam patterns with a dropper below.
The droppers have been more successful with a thicker profile. Think purple drank, brush hog, pork chop express, scuds etc.

A 20 percent chance of showers after 4pm. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 46. East wind 5 to 10 mph.
Creeks are low and clear with temperatures in the high 40s to low 50s.
We seem to be stuck in a weather pattern that isn’t all that comfortable for humans. However, the stable weather has put fish in a good mood! While it isn’t necessary to get up at dawn as the creeks need to warm up a bit, fishing can be consistent all day. Hatches are a bit sparse as the caddis need a bit more sun and warm weather (when the clouds break up, even briefly, caddis show up) and the olives are just naturally tapering off. Subsurface fishing is quite solid. Either tight line nymphing or drifting a scud below a hippie stomper, fish are in the shin to thigh deep water feeding.
Leeches and streamers are also effective right now! Don’t forget a few olive colored flies to mimic the creek lamprey that are around!

Cloudy early, then gradual clearing, with a high near 45. Northwest wind 10 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 23 mph.
Creeks are clear and flowing a bit low. Temperatures are right around 50 degrees area wide.
The chilly weather that has plagued us all April long is still here. The good news is that the fish do not really care too much! While it has suppressed the caddis hatch, fish are feeding well subsurface on scuds any nymphs. There are still a few olive mayflies hatching and fish rising to them in the evenings, but most of the action is below the surface right now. Once we get a sunny day, we should see much more caddis activity (even when we get a break in the clouds we are seeing caddis for a few minutes!).

Mostly sunny, with a high near 58. Breezy, with a southwest wind 7 to 12 mph increasing to 19 to 24 mph in the afternoon. Winds could gust as high as 37 mph.
Creeks are clear to slightly stained with temperatures in the high 40s to low 50s.
We’re at a transition where the caddis are waiting to hatch (on sunny days we have seen some black caddis already!) and the olives are almost done. Normally on sunny days like this we see more caddis and when the clouds are overhead we see more olives.
Subsurface fishing has been very good on thicker bodied flies and caddis larvae (especially in green)
It has been a busy weekend with many fishing clubs out there. We encourage you to remember to fish nice. If there is a car at an access point please drive to another spot. Do not hop upstream of other anglers (without checking with them first, they have the right of way), and finally remember that there is never a good reason to trespass!

Showers, with thunderstorms also possible after 4pm. High near 55. Breezy, with a southeast wind 11 to 20 mph, with gusts as high as 31 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New rainfall amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch, except higher amounts possible in thunderstorms.
Yesterday’s sun brought out the caddis for a bit! With the cloud, rain and wind this weekend it looks like the hatch will be suppressed and the olives should show up in better numbers.
Overall fishing has been quite solid lately with fish eating subsurface very well on caddis larvae, purple drank, and leeches. To figure out what they are eating on the surface, watch the rising fish. A gentle sip or just the nose coming out of the water means they are eating mayflies and emergers. An aggressive, splashy rise or even jumping out of the water means that they are eating caddis.

Patchy fog before 9am. Otherwise, sunny, with a high near 63. West wind 8 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 25 mph.
Yesterday we had drizzle all afternoon and evening. Thankfully it didn’t rain hard enough to mess anything up on the creeks. They remain clear to stained with temperatures in the high 40s to 50 degrees.
Olives are still the main item on the menu with a sprinkling of spring stoneflies. On a day like today, there is a chance at seeing some caddis. The rocks have lots of bright larvae on them ready to hatch (spoiler, fish a green caddis larvae subsurface!)
Subsurface fishing has been great on pretty much any bead heads drifted below the riffles. Something with a bit of movement like a CDC collar is especially effective right now as fish are picking up on movement.

Showers, mainly after 3pm. High near 48. Breezy, with a southeast wind 13 to 22 mph, with gusts as high as 36 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New precipitation amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible.
Creeks are clear and still a bit low. Temperatures are in the high 40s.
Right now we are still in olive and spring stonefly mode, however we have started to spot a caddis here and there. Watch for the warmer and sunny days and we could see the caddis hatch anytime!
Leeches and soft hackles in the morning, then switching to larger flies with bead head droppers and finally dies for rising fish in the afternoon (we are seeing bugs around 1-ish).

Sunny, with a high near 47. North wind 5 to 10 mph, with gusts as high as 18 mph.
Creeks are a bit low and clear. Temperatures are in the 40s.
We are still seeing olives in the later afternoon, especially on the cloudier days. They hatch may be a bit more sparse with the sun today.
Otherwise we are fishing dry/dropper with a large parachute or even a foam fly with a bead head tied below. Subsurface fishing has been good on purple drank, scuds, and caddis larvae. It is not warm enough to see caddis dries yet, but they could start to appear anytime.
