Grey Reef:
Flows- 1,304 CFS
Fishing Report- Fishing is returning to normal after high water temps due to dam maintenance. Water temps are at 59 degrees which is prime for trout throughout the reef. If you are looking to head out and fish look at using Caddis, Trico, Pmd’s , Wine san Juan worms.
Miracle Mile:
Flows- 1,393 CFS
Fishing Report- The Mile is fishing well using worm PMD rigs. There has also been some luck on rock worms. Start with 6ft to an AB or BB and adjust from there. Look at using PMD patterns and Wine San Juan worms
Fremont Canyon:
Flows- 82 CFS
Fishing Report- We are hearing positive reports in the Canyon. Flows are at operational level and despite murky water fishing is still great! Caddis, RS2’s in the afternoon and brown/black leeches have been most productive on the nymph rig. Dry’s are also fishing well so keep an eye out and match any hatches.
The Big Horn:
Flows- 1,909 CFS
Fishing Report-
The Big Horn has been fishing very well lately. Barr’s Emerger, the Jackson MacGruber, and Caddis have all been productive on the nymph rig. If you are looking to get into some dry fly action, the Big Horn may be the best bet. Hoppers and hopper droppers have consistently been fishing well. Start with 6 ft to an AB or BB and adjust from there. Hoppers, Crayfish, Worms, Caddis, PMD’s, Yellow Sallies are all working well.
