Rating: 3/5

Current River Conditions

November 26, 2023

The Eagle has been fishing well, but keep in mind the flows are low and water is relatively clear so be aware when approaching the river. BWO's are beginning to disappear so be prepared to fish midges until the ice comes. We've been mostly nymphing with two midges that are led with an egg, small stonefly, or leech. There's been some dry fly activity, but enough for us to focus our energy on. Fish are on redds, so be aware.
