South Fork, October 5th, 2021

Flow out of Palisades Dam was dropped to 3940 cfs yesterday (now 4660 cfs at Heise, 2090 cfs at Lorenzo). These flows are great news for walk-in wade anglers through making the river safer and offering even more locations for such an approach. Unsettled weather coming up the next several days is another piece of good news for top water fishing as BWO and mahogany hatches will be at a peak. Trout will also be more receptive to streamer patterns during this period of unsettled weather. If you want to enjoy the beautiful fall colors along the South Fork, you’d better hurry. They won’t be around much longer!
