Fishing Locations

The stillwater is starting to warm up. We haven't had any first hand reports from over this way, but it can be a good time to be in this area. Darker stones, worms, and smaller baetis style nymphs are a good bet for finding a few. There have been a few baetis and midges around, and the fish are starting to notice a little bit. If you see heads, a purple haze or a griffiths gnat is a good bet for getting the surface feeders to hand. Be careful out this way the water gets high quickly and can make for dangerous fishing conditions. It may be best to check the flow before you go.
