There are already adult salmonflies on sections of the river a
bit higher up than you'll be.

Reports are that stonefly nymphs are very active on the lower
section, so you all may hit it right.

River levels are somewhat below normal, so folks floating may
bump a few rocks, but fishing should be good.

Thanks JR,
John At the Maupin Fly Shop said the water was low which is good. Last year
the water was so high and fast we didn't bother launching. He said he has
used small midges on a dropper with success.
