Flows are high and inconsistent, with bad clarity. The lower end by the dam is fishing well with midges and balanced leeches. Try your favorite still-water patterns in the lower end until the flows settle. Black and red Zebra Midges, Chironomids, and black or olive balanced leeches will be the best producers. Fishing olive Sculpin patterns like the Slumpbuster on a sinking line can produce vicious takes.
