South Fork

Palisades Reservoir is at 16% of capacity, and flow out of the dam is 7800 cfs ( 8830 cfs at Heise, 4400 cfs at Lorenzo) today with more reductions coming up. It's been a slow year for mayfly activity on the river. Let's hope the upcoming unsettled weather brings on decent BWO and mahogany dun hatches. With fall colors beginning to show, now is a scenic time to be on the river.


Fly Patterns to use:
Coffey’s CH Sparkle Minnow - Sculpin
Harrop's D & D Cripple Mahogany
Brook’s Sprout-Baetis
Dornan’s Nocturnal Stone
