Current Report
Most streams are high and
dirty and almost unfishable
due to massive rains on 8/22
and daily showers since.
One exception is the Castle
River above Beaver Mines
(the town), which still runs
clear. Fish away from the
camping areas if solitude is
appreciated. There are
several Mayfly hatches
coming off in the afternoon,
from a #20 Baetis to an
unidentified hatch about #12.
Fish are not taking dries,
but will take a dark
emerger, about #14. Few
fish on hoppers, some on
nymphs.
If nymphing, you will need
split-shot. Water is clean,
but high.
This section of river has
Cutts, Bows, and Cuttbows,
all mixed together in the
same spots. Most fish are
10-16" with a few larger.
