Fishing Conditions

The Animas has had some much-needed inflow of rain since our low and hot August.  Temps have remained down, and fishing should be good throughout the day.  We have been seeing hatches of baetis coming off late morning to early afternoon.  Nymph rigs have been finding most fish, but dry droppers and streamers are also a good choice.
