Location Area Small Streams Overview Some of the small streams are still at normal flow "Current Creek for instance" and some are high and in full runoff. So each location may have very different conditions, best to call 435-658-1166 and find out our latest info if you are headed to any of these areas. As the snow melts and the small streams start to rise in flow, the water has the potential to be off color or washed out. This is normal for small streams during the runoff season, but that doesn't mean the fishing is bad necessarily. Try nymphing things like worms, leeches, and sow bugs if you find yourself fishing high water on a small stream.
