It's a changing time in central Alberta. Water conditions are great, having cleared from thunderstorms several days ago. Many of the region's streams and rivers remain higher than this time the past several years. The weather remains good also. This weekend's forecast is for a front to move in, cooling air and water temperatures, and possibly sullying a few waters with thunderstorms on the leading edge. But for Fri & Sat, good fishing conditions should persist. Should the forecast hold true - brown trout streams could turn on while cutthroat trout rivers may slow the dry fly window to mid afternoon, though deep nymphing will be productive from late morning to early evening.
This is a good time of the summer to try staying out late on some waters, casting mouse patterns along weedbeds and undercuts. Some large trout can be caught in low light.
The lower reaches of the Ram canyon remain a little murky. Otherwise all other waters are in good shape - flows are good and visibility typically excellent.
Hatches - golden stones, pmds, brown drakes, tricos, caddis, midges, mid sized hoppers, yellow sallies, lime sallies, flavs, green drakes in high country.
