Garden River Report
September 25, 2019
The fall colors are at or close to peak, the area is beautiful when the sun pops out!
In the last two days the Garden River has received enough rain to raise it a full 12 inches and it’s raining today, So the water will continue to rise!
The increased flow has brought a new push of fresh kings, a few pinks and some steelhead. The color is still good and fish can be caught. Yesterday we went 1 for 4 on steelhead and landed kings, especially in the afternoon when the sun came out and slowed the fish movement down.
Eggs still are outproducing nymphs but yesterday afternoon the peacock black stone lit them up.
Hopefully the volume of rain will lighten up and water levels will drop over the next few days. It will make the river a little easier to fish.
Tight lines,
Capt. Chuck
For those of you wondering what’s happening at Eleven Mile, I don’t have any information. However the water level is fine and fish are moving steadily up stream, my guess is there are a bunch of fish up there.
