We are back and the river looks perfect. Water levels are running at 380cfs at the spring and water clarity has been mostly clear. Last week with the heat it was kinda a bummer. This week has started off great with lower temps. Hope they last. The streamer action has been excellent on the overcast days with streamers. Personal faves are big woollies and clousers. On the sunny days nymphs can work great to get down in the deeper pools where the trout are hiding. Hare’s ears, princes, and pheasant tails can work great in sizes 12-16. Hopper droppers can be a lot of fun also. I like big bright hoppers in yellow and orange during the heat of summer. There have been a lot of smaller brown trout stocked in the Spring River this summer that will hit dries. For the smallies big sculpin and clousers can work great. If its hot out fish early and late. If ya get lucky and get a nice cool cloudy day full days are great.

The weekends on Saturdays have had heavy traffic on the river. We always recommend fishing thru the week and on Sundays and leave the river to the canoe hatch on Saturday. Works out great for us.
