: South Fork: It looks like the flow currently coming out of Palisades Dam, around 1000 cfs ( 1400 cfs at Heise, 850 cfs at Lorenzo), will be that which will last throughout the winter. This flow situation means many walk-in wade fishing locations and some tough locations for boating. Currently presenting streamer and rubber legs patterns are best ways to encounter larger trout, whereas BWO and midge life cycle patterns will get attention of trout in general.
