Flows are getting low and water is getting warm. Please be conscious of water temps and don’t fish for trout in water that is over 67 f. There seem to be a lot of folks that are ignorant or just do t really care if they are killing trout. Call 1-800-628-9944 as soon as you see any poachers in the C&R water. Put it in your cell phone now.
