Report Date:
http://www.thetroutfitter.com/fshreport.htmlWater conditions:
Water Temps: Mid 60's
Flow: 45 CFS. This is a permanent flow required to be maintained by LADWP
The air temps will be in the 90's. In the morning the temps will be in the 40's to 50's.
I would fish from 6:30 AM to 10 AM in the morning. Fish from 5:00 to dark in the evening. Avoid anytime in between. The over growth around the river is bad with nettles and weeds.
Fishing Conditions and Hatches:
Hoppers are all over the gorge right now. Caddis and midge hatches are still steady.
Make sure to bring water, a light zip-off pants, a light weight shirt, wading staff (for hiking and snakes) and get out by 10 AM.
