Fish the vegetated banks

Minor drops in flow out of the reservoir have been going on for much of August but have no big impact on downstream trout activity. Top water fishing remains great on most of the river with much of it thanks to abundant bank side terrestrial insects. Ant and hopper patterns lead those bringing action, and precise presentation towards well vegetated banks leads the variables in having success. Launch boats early in the day to avoid crowded conditions at ramps especially those close to Highway 26.
