Flows are back at higher levels which has extending the float season on the Eagle. Hit up your buddy with a raft and get it while you can. While floating we've had great success with streamers, but wading has been done best with bright flies, worms, and stoneflies on nymph rigs. Don't expect to see many bugs around except some caddis, yellow sallies, golden stoneflies, and midges.
