Rain. Patchy fog before 11am. High near 35. Breezy, with an east wind 8 to 16 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible.
Icy storm predicted this evening. While the weather is excellent for winter fishing, travel tonight and tomorrow could be pretty rough.
Creeks are clear to slightly stained after a couple of days of slow melting. Fish have been happily eating midges both surface and subsurface lately with hatches mid day. Scuds, pink squirrels, and leeches have also been effective, especially on the cloudier days. Do not overlook streamers as this is an excellent time to chase big, aggressive trout!
We still have some snow on the banks, and fishing success is still tied to water temperature. Make sure you are checking the temps throughout the day. Once it starts to drop, fishing shuts down.
