Jay Aylward's Tip of the Week
The swift has been in decent shape, with flies hatching out of the water and hungry fish. We have been seeing some bigger mayflies still kicking around and transitioning to some of the smaller cahills. Dry-droppers when you get into the upper-water column scenarios and use standard nymph rigs until you see them rising.

Water Flow Data
5-Day Outlook as of 6/11/25
Plenty of pods of brookies are around with bigger fish mixed in. The stockies are no longer freshman and are now incoming sophomores, still making plenty of mistakes, but being more selective about them. Bring your A-game and throw in some patient-stealthy behavior.
Techniques & Tips as of 6/11/25
I would say nymphing would be your best technique over here.
