June 18th Fishing Report
howers before 1pm, then showers likely and possibly a thunderstorm between 1pm and 3pm, then scattered showers and thunderstorms after 3pm. High near 75. Calm wind becoming northeast around 6 mph in the morning. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New rainfall amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible.A warmer week this week. The light rains recently have kept water temperatures in check, but we are starting to see a few larger creeks hit the mid 60s temperature wise. Overall creeks are low and clear with temps right around 60 degrees. The next few days heading into the weekend look to be brutally hot. It is time to start using your thermometer. Anything over 65 will be poor fishing and much warmer than that you will start to stress trout. The good news is that things cool down after the weekend.
Fishing is solid in the mornings on soft hackles, scuds, and flashy bead heads. There are still some fish rising to rusty spinners at first light too. Once the sun hits the water, the fish start to hide in the undercut banks below riffles. They venture out again in the evening to fish on the sulphurs and cahills hatching late in the day.
