Fishing Locations

 Cold weather has dropped the flow as water is turning into hard stuff. This river forms lots of ice when temps drop the way they did last weekend. Floating isn't a good option unless your ok with having to hit a number of rocks at a low winter flow. Nymphing and Streamer fishing have been solid and we have had good reports on both small and large streamers. Yellow, white, olive and black are all working depending on the conditions that day. Smaller flashy streamers have been getting eats when the sun is high and bright.
