Water Conditions: Flows up to 79cfs as of 7/17.

Fishing Conditions and Hatch: Fishing is slow on the East Walker. If you take a look at the flow graph, you'll see the step ladder effect from the last 5 days. That's not a particulary good thing. Very inconsistent flow means inconsistent behavoir pattern. We are not saying you can't get in some, but it might be a little bit more challenging than last. Should be able to get some quality fish....depending on the time of the day.
