Fishing Overview: Cold water temps and colder air temps are here! The fish are eating nymphs well!
High water is here and looks like it will be for a couple more days, Be mindful of where you fish. Papermill and Reber's Bridge are going to be your best bet.


Specifics and Tips: Water is back up, nymphing is still the best bet.

Small pheasant tails, Psycho Prince, and Sugar Daddys have all been producing fish.
With high water offten times means lots of worms, San Jauns are the first fly I use.
