South Fork

Flow out of Palisades dam and the entire river below has been essentially constant for many days but above normal for the time of the season. With Palisades Reservoir approaching one-third of storage capacity current flow will eventually drop. We're still waiting for the mutant golden stones to be significant. Meanwhile two nymph rigs, hopper-dropper combos and caddis life cycle patterns during PM hours produce up and down the river. Try riffles during the evening when overhead disturbances from passing boats diminishes.
