5/20 -- GOOD
Best fishing in the morning. Use scuds, BWO's, midges and mayfly nymphs and even streamers. Get your licks in before snowmelt kicks in. You'll need to walk in the snow once you get to the ranch due to road closure.

Nice flows. Best bets are midges, mayflies and scuds and during the morning. Get your fishing in now before snowmelt jacks up the flows.
