Water Level and Clarity: Water is up at a good level for May. Fair bit of colour in it after the consecutive days of rain.

Water Temps: Cold.

Fishing Overview: In the morning fish were on nymphs and reasonably active in deeper pools of water. As the day goes on and it gets warmer activity will increase.

We started seeing caddis hatching and started seeing fish rising. There is enough colour in the water that the fish that are eating off the surface are near edges where the water is cleaner.

Have not seen as many BWOs out but any overcast rainy days will bring them out.

Flies to try:

  • Leeches - Mini Leech, Squirrel Leeches, Peacock Bugger, Rio's Soccer Mom, Gabriel's Leech
  • Caddis - Copper K Chartreuse Nymph, Rio's Puparazzi, Juan's Kryptonite Caddis, Pyscho Prince, X-Cassis, Double Duck Caddis
  • Other Nymphs - TB Jig Prince, TB Hare's Ear Jig
  • Streamers - Crosseyed Muddler, Articulated Sparkle Yummy, Galloup's Articulated Butt Monkey, Galloup's Flat Head Kitty
