Water levels are still running a little high and visibility has improved greatly. Much of Pine was restocked this week, including the Keystone Select stretch from Darling Run.
Big hatches of caddis came off along with some hendricksons. Water temp was 58-59 in Rexford.
Warm weather this past week helped kick off the hatches and anglers were greeted with rising fish in many stretches.
Pine is running high, but has cleared up quite a bit. More rain is expected this week. Anglers are doing best with heavy nymphs and streamers. Small black stones are still around and soon we'll see blue quills, quill gordons,...
Heavy rains over night have Pine up and off color. Currently temps are holding in the mid 40's with small black stoneflies hatching sporadically
