South Fork

Flow out of Palisades Dam dropped to 11000 yesterday. Water temperature just below the dam is 65 deg. F. That's getting a bit high for the best fishing, especially because we can expect further decreases in flow. Palisades Reservoir is down to 28% capacity. Early in the day fish chernobyl types because mutant stoneflies are coming on. By late morning go to rubber legs trailed by your favorite small nymph pattern. During evenings a good caddis hatch is on-going, making for the best dry fly fishing these days.
Fly Patterns to use:
Henry’s Fork Foam Stone Salmonfly
Dornan’s Micro Circus Sally
Improved Sparkle Dun PMD
