The latest report is the water is still off color, but you can catch fish. The wading is reported to be 'Treacherous!' So, use caution if you go. Large, dark flies like a black Rubberlegs paired with any one of the good Euronymph jig flies or a Perdigon will fish nicely. The flows down through Big Bend below the Pit 5 dam are still somewhat high at around 550 CFS, below Pit 3 they are hovering around 370 CFS. Keep an eye on this one, as it clears it should fish better and better.

This is a great river to fish a Euro rod and we highly recommend it. Be careful though, this can be a slippery river to wade. We recommend a wading staff when fishing the Pit.

Be aware that the flows on the Pit can and will change without notice, so definitely check before you go! And be prepared to get out when the river begins to rise.

Here are some useful links to monitor the flows:
Pit 3 - Below Pit 3 Dam
Pit 5 - Through Big Bend
