Excellent conditions currently. The section upstream from the Benton Bridge has some larger fish holding in the Long Years area and above the confluence of Hot Creek. Most are small wild fish here that are eager to hit BWO's or caddis and hopper patterns. The numbers (stockers) are to be found in the stretches below the campground and downstream from the bridge.

Nymphing has been best here using PT's, tiger or zebra midges and SJ worms. We are still a ways off from the fall migration but it should be a good one this season.
