Rock Creek Report – 5/19


yellow

 

REPORT:

Rock Creek has dropped close to the level it was back on the 11th of the month.  While there is still more water to come out of the mountains, we’re confident the local rivers have seen their highest levels for the year already. The creek is giving it up subsurface BIG TIME and pretty well on top on the far upper reaches. There are lots of salmonflies on the lower Clark at this point and that will be the next big thing on Rock Creek, probably by mid or the end of next week if temps warm up a bit.  Big dries tight to the banks will almost surely tag you some fish even now, but we KNOW yellow streamers are the devil up here already.  Better be able to row . . . .   Dangerous biz if you can’t.  **Come check out our closeout specials on select fly lines (in all weights) and reels.  Stop in while the selection is still good!!*
