June 20th Fishing Report
Sunny, with a high near 93. Heat index values as high as 96. Southwest wind 8 to 14 mph, with gusts as high as 22 mph.Creeks are clear to slightly stained with water temperatures right around 60.
This heat will slow things down a bit as bright sun, clear skies, and rising water temperatures are not the trout's favorite. It is about time to use a thermometer. Anything over 65 will be slow fishing and much higher than that, can be deadly to trout.
Thankfully it is only a day or two of punishing heat, after that it will be warm, but just a bit more than normal for late spring/early summer.
The only silver lining to the heat is that we should start seeing more grasshoppers out there! The past week we have started to see juvenile hoppers on the banks.
