Nice warm, sunny day today.  However, rain is moving in and probably see some late Friday evening.  Saturday is scattered and right now, Sunday looks like rain most of the day with some heavy rain at times.  Moving out Monday then temperatures in the upper 80s or low 90s for the week.

They continue to run water 24/7.  Although the projection had said one unit until the afternoon each day, they have been running two units.  Not sure what they are doing.

Jim and Dana on the water Monday with a family from Texas.  Jim had Howard and Randy.  That was one of those water up and down days.  Fishing tough but they brought in a few on the ruby midge and a Hot Hare’s Ear Nymph.  Steve and Devin fished with Dana.  Ruby 2 brought them in a few fish.

Kody – 6/2/26

Tuesday, was another group.  Dana had Daryle and Kody.  Best patterns were the black copperhead and Ruby 2 midges.  Darren fished Jeremy and Gentry and it was the black copperhead midge for them.  Landon was on the water with Frances and Lynne.  They had a very good and interesting day.  Best

Frances with 20″ rainbow – 6/2/26

patterns were the black copperhead, Ruby 2 and copper dun midges.  Frances got her first 20 incher!  The highlight of the day was at the end of the trip they rescued a baby mink!  Dipped it out of the water and took it to a wildlife rescue center.  Great job guys!

Poor Little Mink!

Warm and sunny today and looks like that will be the trend for the coming week.  Upper 80s tomorrow then mid to low 80s the rest of the week.  Friday and through the weekend, at least right now, is showing a slight possibility of rain.

We continue to see a low one to full one unit every day.  Throwing in the low two units for a few hours on some days.

Jim on the water Wednesday with Julie and her son, Caleb.  Caleb is 12 and this was his first time with a fly rod and with great success.  Julie landed a nice 20 inch rainbow.  They were fishing the ruby and black copperhead midges or stripping the JQW streamer.

Dale with 20″ Rainbow – 5/27/26

Gina on the water Tuesday with Dale and Victoria.  Tough day for them, but Gina made up for it the next day, Wednesday.  Black copperhead midge was the ticket and Dale landed a nice 20 inch rainbow amongst several other nice fish.

Friday, Dana took Jeff and Josh out for half a day.  Red San Juan worm, black copperhead midge and olive wooly bugger were their flies for the trip.

Jeff – 5/29/26

Received a little rain yesterday around noon.  Today is nice, 80s with an overcast sky.  Pretty good chances for rain tomorrow and Friday.  Temperatures in the upper 70s until Sunday when it will be lower 80s most of the week.

We continue to see a low one unit every day.  Around 3:00 p.m. them bump it up to a low two.  Yesterday, they bumped it up a little earlier.

Family group on the water Monday with Dana and Jim.  Dana took Chaz and Abby.  Good day for them on the black copperhead and Ruby 2 midges.  John and Mary were with Jim and they worked hard for the fish they caught on the black copperhead and ruby midge.  Carolyn on the water with one of here long-time regulars, Gary and his grandson, Alex.  They worked hard too and found a few fish, also on the black copperhead and ruby 2 midges.

Kevin – 5/26/26

Tuesday, Kevin and his father-in-law, Terry fished with Carolyn.  Again, black copperhead and Ruby 2 midges.  Had to look for them, but you’d find a pocket and pull out some fish and then nothing for a while until you found another pocket.

Terry – 5/26/26

Really picked up when it started raining.  Landon was on the water with Chris and Louie.  They were catching on the came combo of flies!

Chris – 5/26/26

Rain most of today.  Slight chances for rain tomorrow through the weekend.  20% tomorrow, 30% Thursday, 50% Friday, 40% Saturday and 30% Sunday.  As well as about the same thing into next week.

Running a low one unit every day until 4:00 p.m. when they kick it up to a low two units.

Thursday, long time fisher with Dana, Jeff, brought his friend Ray to go out for a half day wade trip.  Pretty good day for these guys on the black copperhead midge, olive wooly bugger and an orange crackleback.  Jim as on the water with Dean, from Tennessee.  They too had a pretty good day stripping a sculpin pattern.

Friday, Dean spent half a day on the water with Dana.  Best pattern for them was the olive wooly bugger.  Jim had Al from Iowa on the water.  It was the sculpin pattern for them.  Andy from Texas, spent the day

Andy – 5/15/26

Sunday, Dean spent and last of his four-day fishing tour with Gina.  Good day for them on scuds, red Dally midge and a leech pattern.

Dean – 5/17/26

Beautiful weather!  We certainly could do with a good rain!  Days continue to be in the 70s and 80s with lots of sunshine.  Chances for rain next Monday and Wednesday,,,,,we’ll see!!

They continue to keep the generators off most of the day every day.  Might turn on two units to two to three hours late in the afternoon.  This week, however, they were working on the dam so they opened up some of the gates to raise the water level to allow them to bring their boats up to the dam.  This was for only a few hours on Tuesday and again today.  Think this will be over after today.

Jim on the water Sunday with Brad and his son.  Both are new to fly fishing so Jim worked with them on casting and line management.  No good flies for them that day but they did bring in a fish or two.  Dana had Jennifer and John on the water.  Turned them into strippers pulling the olive wooly bugger.  Also caught a few on a peach egg pattern.

Monday, Landon took Trevor and Greta from Idaho our for half a day.  Good day for them on the wooly

Scott – 5/11/26

bugger, crackleback and peach.  Most of them were pulling the streamers.  Gina had Scott and his father, Virgil on the water for half a day.  Good day for them on the black midge, olive leech and Ruby 2 midge.  Carolyn had Clark out for the first of his three days on the

was with Landon.  Another good day for Clark on the Red San Juan worm and gray scud, a soft hackle, but best on the crackleback.

Clark back on the water Wednesday.  This time it was with Dana.  Good day on the olive wooly bugger and black copperhead midge.  Jim had Tom out for half a day.  Good day for them on a sculpin pattern and a black midge.

Weather continues to be nice.  Temperatures in the 70s and 80s.  Chances of rain here and there but nothing really solid.

Back to no generation most of the day.  One or two units on for a couple hours in the late afternoon or early morning.

Dana and Landon had a group on the water last Monday.  Dana took Ted and Pat.  Good day for them on the Ruby 2 and an olive wooly bugger.  John and David went with Landon and they too had a good day.  It was the crackleback, JQ streamer and Ruby 2 midge for them.  They were beginners so they got to work a little on casting and line management.

Wednesday, Dick fished with Dana.  This was one of those tough days.  Did get a fish on the black copperhead midge.

Friday, fun day for Carolyn with Diana and Carol.  We had to look for them but had a good day on the Ruby 2 and black copperhead midges.

Oliver – 5/9/26

Saturday some of our long-time fishers Rick and Kristie fished with Dana.  They started fishing with us on 2004!  Great day for them on the olive wooly bugger and an orange crackleback.  Sunday, Landon took the the kids, Oliver and Jessie.

Levi – 5/9/26

Landon had them wading and it was a good day for these guys on the peach egg, JQ streamer and holographic green crackleback.  Dana had Maci and Nicole.  They didn’t want to wade, so Dana took them around in the boat.  Unfortunately, they couldn’t find any fish.

Maci – 5/9/26

Another beautiful day today.  Temperatures should hit upper 70s.  Monday looks like more of the same but by Tuesday, rain chances move in through Wednesday.  Temperature cools down Wednesday to upper 50s, then back to mid 60s Thursday and low 70s Friday and Saturday.  Chances of rain showing up by next weekend, but that’s a week away and we know how good these forecast are!!!

Generation pattern a bit different the past three days.  Low generation all day every day since Friday and it is the projection again for tomorrow.  We’ll have to wait and see what the trend will be tomorrow.

Landon on the water last Wednesday with Larry and Lindi from Texas.  No generation that day, so they opted for a wade trip.  Fun day for these beginners as they hooked fish on the ruby 2 midge and the size 16 gray scud.  Jim was out with one of his regulars, Frank.  They fished both Wednesday and Thursday.  JQ streamer, Ruby and Blood worm.  Dean, from Kansas fished with Carolyn Wednesday and Thursday.  He had a couple good days on the chartreuse mop fly Wednesday and the cream colored mop fly Thursday.

Dylan – 5/1/26

Jerry – 5/1/26

Sam, Carter and Matthew were on a wade trip with Darren.   All new to fly fishing so they were in a learning process.  Caught some fish on midges and scuds.  Had a fun time!!!

Pretty nice weather the past two days.  Might get some rain tomorrow, 60% chance.  After that it looks like temperatures on the upper 60s and low 70s into next week.

Generation schedule crazy.  Yesterday they fired up two units early in the day and kept them on all day.  Shut them down early this morning for about four hours and then fired them up again.  Still running two units.  The projection says it should be off today and most of tomorrow.  We will just have to wait and see.

Jim on the water Friday with Jeff from Texas.  Fairly new fly fishing so Jim worked with him on casting and line management.  Caught several fish on the ruby midge and blood worm.  No generation that day.

Yesterday, Dana took Nathan and Parker out for the morning.  Parker is eight and just getting started.  Caught a few fish on the big ruby, a gray scud and the olive wooly bugger.

We continue to see lots of off time with the water.  Maybe run one or two units one or two hours early in the morning, but mainly they have been running sometime after 3:00 p.m. and then one and up to two for three to four hours.  Lots of wading time!

Weather has been spastic.  Forecasts for rain that rarely shows up and if it does, it is very little.  We are definitely in a drought condition.  Wish we could get several days of good rain!

Dana on the water Monday with Michael and Wade.  Good day for these guys on an olive wooly bugger.

Tuesday and Thursday, Carolyn had Sam, one of her regulars, out.  Awesome day on Tuesday and a darn good day on Thursday.  Both days the best fly was the black copperhead midge,  But he also caught

Sam – 4/14/26 – 20″ rainbow

several on the red tunghead San Juan worm.   Got his 20 incher on Tuesday.  On the awesome day, it started out with a fish on on his first three casts.  Nothing on the fourth cast but hooked another on the fifth cast!

Rick – 4/15/26

Wednesday, Dana was back on the water with Rick  from Iowa.  What a difference a few days makes.  Tough day for them but they did catch a few on the black copperhead midge and Ruby 2 midges.

Friday, Landon had Scott and Brad from Texas out for half a day.  Really good day for them on the black copperhead midge, a cream mop fly and a #16 gray scud.  This was Scott’s first time to catch a fish on a streamer and Brad’s first time with a fly rod.  Guess who’s hooked on fly fishing now!

Grant and Gilmore had a quick morning trip with Jim Saturday.  Got a few fish to the boat on the ruby midge and a blood worm.  Pretty good for the amount of time they spent on the water!  Ken and John from Oklahoma fished with Dana.  Very good day for them on a red San Juan worm.

Rain chances today and again on Wednesday.  Otherwise, temperatures in the 70s & 80s through next weekend.  Chances for rain next Saturday.

They continue to run no water most of the day.  Still one or two units on sometime during the day for a couple hours.

Carolyn on the water Friday with one of her long-time regulars from Iowa, Mike.  Good day for Mike mainly on the Ruby 2 midge.  Beautiful day and definitely a fun day bringing in fish!
