Last weekend the South Fork was Chocolate Brown and High! [url "http://waterdata.usgs.gov/id/nwis/uv/?site_no=13338500&PARAmeter_cd=00065,00060,00010"]http://waterdata.usgs.gov/...cd=00065,00060,00010[/url]
The water looks great for this weekend!
The Wife and I fished the confluence of the North Fork and Middle fork (dirty water mixing with clean) from a Drift boat, She killed me with her bobber and beads, I was using a 7 wt switch rod, we hooked over 30 fish and netted at least 14. Anyone that claims beads are flossing has never seen how great it is when you're able to match the hatch!
All the fish netted were between 11 lbs and 16lbs
31-37 inches some a whole lot fresher than others, we kept only 4!
More fresh B's are on their way now that Lower Granite ladder is back open
