Overview
Small Streams fishing is okay. Freestone small streams are experiencing higher temps around mid-day, bug hatches are slow and fish are taking refuge. Tailwater small stream rivers are still fishing pretty good, just be aware of those warmer temperatures.

Overview
Water temps are dropping across the board. That being said some small streams pretty tricky. With the PMD hatches and Hopper eats slowing down, most rivers can be productive with Caddis and small terrestrial patterns. Some small streams are starting to reach their winter flows and are becoming shallow.

Overview
Small stream fishing has been good, some streams are fishing better than others. Water temps across the board are on the warmer side. We are still seeing PMD’s, Caddis, and hoppers. Early mornings and late afternoons have been some of the more productive hours (before and after the highest heat times of the day.) Mid-day you will sometimes notice a lull in the fishing as fish beat the hottest time of the day.

Overview
Small stream fishing has been good, some streams are fishing better than others. Water temps across the board are pretty good, be wary of wide open small streams as they are the ones where temps will get higher, faster! We are seeing some PMD’s, Caddis, and hoppers. Early mornings and afternoons have been some of the more productive hours (before and after the highest heat times of the day.)
