Report: Flows are just above 1,000 CFS at the lake and the river is warming. Clarity is excellent, the days are longer and bugs are beginning to pop. Bring the usual patterns for the Upper, Rubberlegs, Zebra Midges, some BP Weiss nymphs and fish them under a dry. On sunny days you can possibly get a hatch, so a well-stocked dry box would be a shame to leave at home. We'd recommend fishing Hat Creek or the McCloud at Ash Camp for now.
