River Report/Conditions

River Report / Conditions – August 6, 2018

August 6, 2018, Author: Patrick Cook

Both the East and West continue to drop and clear up nicely. The reports I received from anglers throughout the day were all positive. The Upper West continues to offer the most consistent fishing. Streamers and Nymphing between hatches can be rather productive.  If you’re nymphing, find the slack water and seams.   The forecast is calling for cloudy day and a high/low of 90/68 with SSE winds at 2 mph.

Hatching:

Sulphurs #14-#18

BWO #14-#22

Tan Caddis #14-#18

Dark Blue Sedge #14

Spotted Sedge #16-18

Iso #10-#12

Vitreus #14-16

Cahills #12 – #14

Tricos #20-24
