On Tuesday we had partly cloudy conditions with high winds and it was in the mid 30’s. Though day for anger’s in the windy condition’s. Customer’s fishing the upper sections the river had better action. With the recent break in the weather the fishing pressure has picked up and the Altmar area continues to get heavy fishing pressure on a daily basis. In the upper end of the river the fish have been holding in the deep holes in the Lower Fly Zone, Schoolhouse, Wire Hole, Ellis Cove, Trestle Pool, Pineville, Ace in the Hole and Sportsman Pool. In the lower end of the river the fish are also holding in the deep holes such as Papermill, Town Pool, Longbridge/Staircase, Black Hole and upper section of the DSR. Anglers who are float fishing or bottom bouncing have done well with blue or pink egg sacs, pink worms, trout beads and steelhead jigs.
