Amazing flows are coming from Gross Reservoir right now, bringing excellent fishing throughout South Boulder Creek. A variety of hatche are occuring right now which has lead to fantastic dry fly fishing. PMD's, caddis, and midges are the primary hatches right now, but keep an eye out for a few remaining green drakes. Additionally, creek fish are incredibly opportunistic and will readily take a hopper. We're starting our day throwing a hopper-dropper setup, and moving to single or double dries once we sees bug activity.
