Get out early and get off early this week. The heat will slow things down midday, but the fishing has still been good if you get early enough.

5-Day Outlook as of 6/30/25
The next few days are looking hot, but hopefully it cools off a little again for the weekend.
Techniques & Tips as of 6/30/25
Small attractors and stonefly patterns with droppers have been good most of the day, but the fish seem to get a little bit more particular as the day goes on. Small caddis emergers and pmd's seem to be the go to when the fish got snobby.
