March 30th Fishing Report
A 50 percent chance of rain after 1pm. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 44. Southeast wind 8 to 14 mph, with gusts as high as 23 mph. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible.Looking forward, we are forecasted for some rain tomorrow and possible snow Friday night. If the rain does not come all at once, then everything will be just fine. The ground is still very dry and can absorb a lot of moisture right now.
Creeks are clear and low with temperatures in the high 30s to mid 40s. Fish have been in a great mood lately rising almost all day long. Since the creeks are so clear, they are super spooky in the flat pools, but the broken riffle water and just below the riffles they are much easier to catch right now.
Midges and olives are hatching, with a few caddis showing up as well. From time to time we are spotting some spring stoneflies too.
A size 16 chubby chernobyl (brown or olive) with a bead head below is great when the fish are not rising.
Leeches and smaller streamers are great right now too with trout acting very grabby lately.
