A & G Outfitters's Tip of the Week
Remember that handling fish on very cold days can do harm just as handling them on very warm days can. Do not take fish out of the water on cold days and consider giving the trout a break on very cold days.

5-Day Outlook as of 1/23/25
Finally, we're through the arctic blast. The river developed a bit of shelf ice in some slower sections, but nothing that shouldn't be gone in the next day or two as temperatures return to normal. Conditions are currently pretty low and crystal clear. I'd expect a little bit of snow melt over the weekend, so flows may increase a bit.
