Mid July Fishing Update

The Fish Guy here. The fishing continues to be very good. This hot dry weather we've had the past couple of weeks has not had an effect on the fishing. The PMD hatches continue to be very strong on Spring Creek and in between hatches the fish continue to eat basic attractors like Parachute Adams and Parachute Hare's Ears. There are grasshoppers all over the place and it's only a matter of time before the fish start keying in on hoppers and when they do the fishing should be awesome. We have had a few slow periods but generally I can't complain. I am very excited about how the fish has responded to the stream re-hab work we did on Upper Spring Creek this past winter. There are fish in all the new holding water and almost everytime I'm out there I see fish in new places...build it and they will come. We should start to see the first of the Sulphurs pretty soon. This small sulphur/cream bodies baetis mayfly is the second major hatch of the summer and will continue thru mid September. I look forward to spending time with all of you on the water later this summer.
