Fishing Locations

 The weather has cause the flow out of the dam to increase, you could easily do a longer float right now, Its off color but still fishable. On cloudy days try working olive/ white or white streamers through the softer water and the middle weed beds for those shiners that spill out of the dam. Streamer fishing should get better as we progress into October. The nymph game will be best in the soft inside buckets. Try working a worm and some sort of tail water tiny. Sow bugs, scuds in orange and pink, and small may fly nymphs will get the job done as well. More dry fly fishing on the horizon, keep an eye out for fall baetis. This is also the time of year to fish the inside of the turns. The outside bends will have the weed flow that is breaking away from the bottom.
