FISHING: Fair
We continue to get isolated reports of fish being taken from Gold Bar upstream. There seem to be a few fish trickling in and those willing to put in the time have eventually been rewarded.
Fish early and late on bright sunny days and don't forget to fish water that is faster than you might like, because fish will tuck into these areas to take advantage of the higher oxygen content.
I would fish smaller patterns such as Silvey's Spey flies, small marabou tubes and small wets such as a Signal Light or Night Dancer.
It is also the time to start thinking dry line fishing. My favorite fly right now is a muddler minnow in natural and purple fished on a long leader in streamy flows.
