Flows are looking pretty stable on the Blue, unfortunately, they're sitting at really low levels. Fishing is still decent, but we've been having to run very shallow nymph rigs with a sz6 split shot or even tungsten putty that is lighter in weight. As always, try to sight fish and spend your time fishing with midges, mysis, and micro eggs with a clear Thingamabobber.
