Seeing Some Lower Flows And Fishing Is Very Good!
Weather in a word is “hot!”. Plus the slight chances for rain almost every day means it’s humid and that doesn’t help a bit! Expecting upper 80s and low 90s into the weekend. Slight chances for rain every day.
We have been seeing at least one unit on some days then ramping up to a low two and finally a full two or three units by early afternoon.
Jim – 6/6/21
Darren on the water last Sunday with Jim from the St. Louis area. Good day for them on the ruby 2 under a tungsten surveyor.
Monday, Gary had a group from Topeka, Kansas who wanted to learn how to cast. He worked with them on casting, then let them try their new-learned skill to hook a few fish. Jim and his sons, Chris and Zach caught a few fish on the mop fly and a gray scud.
Chris from Texas, fished with Jim last Tuesday. They were catching on a size 8 JQ streamer until the water came on a noon and trashed up everything.
Stephanie – 6/9/21
Wednesday, Carolyn took Bill and Stephanie out for half a day. Picked fish steadily all morning. They did well on the cerise San Juan worm under the big ruby and had

Fished a bead head pheasant tail nymph and caught several, wonderful McCloud trout and Nim was ready to call it a day.
