Cedar Run USGS Gauge- 12:00PM- 1.43ft

What's Working?

Nymphing deeper pockets and fishing small streamers has been best.

Other notes-

Pine has cooled down some and cool nights all week should have temps favorable for trout fishing in the mornings. Watch for rising temps in the afternoon and leave the trout alone once temps hit the upper 60s/70s. Water is low and clear. Smallmouth are also being caught. dragonfly patterns, crayfish, and small streamers are all working.
