Some rain the other day brought the flows back up above 40cfs again, and the waters cool til the late afternoon so the fish are happy. Not much hatching so the fish are hungry. Most of the heavily fished sections are a lot tougher, and the fish know just about every dry fly we fish up here by now so a small dropper is a necessity if you're going to fish anywhere near the campgrounds. I hiked in a bit yesterday on a rare late July day off, and got into a lot of fish on small terrestrials.
