Usually spawn goes in full swing in December through the end of February. So on that note, if you care about the creek just flat out don't fish it during those 3 month...

Flows
(Preview)
From what I uderstand they had moved the flows up to help with the salmon spawning, but now they have reduced them to below 60 cfs. Does anyone know the reasonong for this?? Also at 60 cfs isn't that going to put some of the trout redds high and dry??

Is it just me or does it seem like the snails are dissapearing? I remember seeing them covering every rock in the creek. Now I haven't been seeing any. Can these things die out on their own?

I'm trying #18 dark bead head nymphs behind a leading fly of various configurations - small san juan worm, wooly worms. Mostly I've been dead drifting with an indicator. I'm using 4 or 5x 9' leaders on...
