54.0 @ New Castle below Glenwood Springs
Due to warm weather and a 100% snowpack we are in full run off here in the central rockies and the conditions should continue for the next few weeks. The water conditions between Windy Gap res. and Radium below the Gore canyon are still very good. Big Stoneflies (salmon fly), BWO's, Caddis and eggs are the food of choice right now. Streamers from the boat are fishing well right now as well. The Salmon Fly hatch should get going anytime now keep checking back, fishing the nymphs has been outstanding.
