Evidently conditions no longer permit.
After fishing in some surprisingly low flows through the morning, we called it quits about 1 PM, we saw a number of wild and planted fish both. Only brought one to hand, though several others were hooked up. At about 11 AM, I checked the water temp - 66°. Still fishable early in the day, but getting a bit high. As we were walking back to the truck, we talked to an older gentleman that works in the area. He said the creek was planted twice last week, but this week the truck showed and left without leaving fish. Obviously the hatchery truck driver decided the conditions were no longer supportive of planting. That in itself is fine with me, but it serves as a sign that creek conditions are dropping.
The only flies we could get any fish interested in were Elk Hair Caddis and Sponge Bob Caddis in 14 & 16.
Anyway. thought I'd post up about the water temps. The last couple weeks have seen me on small to medium sized creeks and temps and flows were good. It will depend on your local and the specific water you fish, but please keep temps in mind.
