Fishing Conditions 

The San Miguel is in runoff mode. It will be off color, but still pretty clear, so fishing will remain decent.  Watch for some caddis or small stoneflies to be hatching.  Fish will be close to the banks, so nymphing or a dry dropper just off the shore will be a good option.

Nymphs: Prince nymphs 10-16, Runt Stone Golden 12-16,  Pat’s Rubberlegs 8-12, 20 Incher 10-14, Flashback Pheasant Tail 14-20, Blowtorch Jig 14-16, San Juan Worms, Caddis Pupa.
