Report Date:
http://www.thetroutfitter.com/fshreport.htmlWater Conditions: Great the flows are at 23 cfs as of 12/15
GATE IS OPEN AND YOU CAN STILL DRIVE ALL THE WAY UP TO THE PARKING LOTS ABOVE THE CANYON SECTION.
Fishing Conditions and Hatches: Excellent with the clear, cool days, the fish are feeding hard 10 am until 2 pm and they are not very choosy!
Start with midges, then go to baetis nymphs and dries if they start sipping on the surface.
Once the action gets going you can go "big and buggy" and they'll gobble fies they wouldn't even look at in summer.
