Fishing Locations

 The water temp had dropped off the last few days with nights under 10 degrees but have started to rebound. We have solid week of milder temps coming. It may even yield some top water action with Midges. Most fish are hanging in the slower deeper water. Small and flashy is the name of the game if you decide to nymph; Green Machines, $3 dips, purple deaths, and zebra midges are all good bets. Streamer fishing has been spotty in the high sun with fish on the chase for a short window, and other times not wanting a big fly at all. When the streamer bite is on, try natural colors and smaller profile streamers. ** Varney Bridge is open to traffic**

**Please leave spawning fish alone and don't tread on redds!!!**
