Some of the surface ice has receded because of the recent mild weather. Try to focus on sections of the river with a good current and gradient. Slow-moving water has less oxygen in the winter, so fish tend to move away. The Circle Valley Anglers fly shop reports afternoon hatches of midges and small black stoneflies. Fishing is fair to good with midge larvae, black hare's ears, small black stoneflies, black and brown woolly buggers and brown and olive zonkers. Call the shop at 435-577-2168 for up-to-date conditions and fishing reports.
