Summary:Fished with my Dad from 1:00PM to about 6:00PM. Water flows were very low but fishing was quite productive. We caught and released 64 beautiful rainbow trout between us. Mostly dry takes, but caught a bunch on the dropper as well. We were the only fisherman on the water. The wading and moving along the stream can be tough. It's pretty rocky. Watch your step! Great stream. If you go please catch and release!

Spring Runoff

Whether you are in the Sierras or the Rockies, the spring runoff seems to be making up for previous years of drought. Here in the west, some of the lakes and reservoirs are filling up to capacity and sometimes exceeding.
