Yup that be a brown. Spent a lot of time fishing that river year round for the last ten years and a few things I have found.
Is the fish are pretty sensative to fishing pres. The difference between catching and nothing is practicing good wading habits. I am talking sneak up and and be very easy with no splashing around when wadding. Sloppy slappy fly casting with short leaders will put fish down when the water is low and clear. If you are throwing drys when you pick a size you think is right put it back in the box and go next size smaller. You will catch more fish doing those few things up there. Best time to fish that place I feel is when there is a little murk to the water in the spring prior to full blown run off. Some awesome BWO hatches in april and may that fish better than any other hatch all year.
