On most of the Colorado Rivers the flows have been steadily dropping and clearing over the past week. With the exception of some afternoon thunderstorms dropping large amounts of rain in some areas causing some rivers to run off color for a day or so.
What this means is with the clear water and flows dropping the fishing will be getting better and better with each day of dropping flows and rising water temperatures.
The last few days that I was able to wet a line, we caught fish in the pockets and edges. Where the fish should have been! Now the fishing I cannot say was super hot, but we managed plenty of hook ups and fish to the net. The only thing really lacking was a little less water and some warmer temperatures to kick the hatches and fish activity into high gear.
With the dropping flows we should see this activity ramp up in the next week or two. So this means get out and fish daily. This is the time of year you can hit one of the “Hot” days on the river.
Fish will be aggressively hitting dries and nymphs alike and as long as the pattern is close I highly doubt you will have many refusals.
