Fishing Report 4/24/2022

We have had some great weather and some stellar trips this past week. The warm weather and minimal rain has really got the fish buzzing! The rivers temperatures are around 50 degrees now. There has been quite a few insects flying around but not many fish feeding on the surface yet, but it will be soon!

The fish have been getting more and more aggressive chasing all types of streamers. With the water levels dropping the nymphing has started to pick back up again as well. The trout fishing is only going to get better the next few weeks so go out and wet a line or give us a ring to book a trip!
