South Fork 5-26-12

Fishing has been quite good on the river. Flow out of Palisades Dam has been steady (11000 cfs) for several days, and water quality is excellent.  Up and down the river rubber legs patterns trailed by a San Juan worm have been taking fish. Streamers, especially under low light conditions, are effective. Consider that the current cloudy, cool weather is “BWO weather.” Fish are responding to emerging BWOs, so bring life cycle patterns.
