Today marks the beginning of a good period of melting that will last through the weekend. The melt will be slow as it will lock up again each evening and water clarity should not suffer.Remember your thermometer! Days like these can be fantastic fishing until the cold snowmelt starts to drop water temps. As of now they are hovering near 40 area wide. If they drop a degree or two, things start to shut down.
Fish are feeding on midges and other dark, thin bodied flies as well as scuds and pink squirrels. The rising fish are eating midges.
