This is the largest freestone creek in the region and is currently running on the high side making some of the crossings difficult in the canyon sections. Clarity has been pretty good most days and the softer water is very fishable especially in the Pikel Meadows and Chris Flats areas. Look for improving conditions as July rolls on with the exception being an extended period of afternoon wet T-storms. This weather condition will make the water rise and become off color quickly here. You can get away with some larger nymphs here like flashback Pt's and Tiger midges in the #14-16 range. Dry dropper combos in the slower riffle water and runs spank the wild fish here, as do dry/dry rigs with a caddis in the equation #14-18 dark bodied. Mornings are best here this time of year as the wind gets to hooting by 11 am most days.
