Considering it is June 18, the river is in pretty awesome shape. Visibility is between 2 and 3 feet and flows sit around 187 cms. The pre-emergent Stone thing is definitely happening, with good success with a large Stone nymph hung under and indicator or even a dry fly.
There have been a few fish up on Caddis here and there.
Forecast rainfall amounts for Wednesday and Thursday of this week may give us somewhat of a “restart” on things but if the weather clears things should start to improve after a bit. Cal us at the shop for updates on condtions.
Hatches: Caddis
Streamers: C/H R/L Bugger-Black, Geek Leech, Marabou Clouser

Crowsnest River Report – June 18, 2013
The Crow is down to a semi-wadeable level of around 13 cms. Reports from the Crow (and Oldman) have been very good since the end of last week. Fish are very receptive to both Stonefly nymphs, and dries.
Conditions may evolve for the worse depending on how much rain we get with the system coming in later this week. Give us a call if you’re thinking of heading down to make sure conditions are OK.
Hatches: Stoneflies
Streamers: Bead Crystal Bugger, Jawbreaker
Nymphs: Rock ‘n’ Roller Stone, Karnopps Keystone, Pink B/H Stone
Dries: Fluttering Stone, Chernobyl Ant, Plopper Stone
High Country River Report – June 18, 2013
Only reports we have had so far are from the Oldman, and those were very good. Likely a little early for most of the high country but the Lower Sheep and Highwood are in good condition, which bodes well for the upper sections.
Hatches: Stoneflies
Streamers: Gartside Leech, Sleech, Clouser
Nymphs: Karnopp’s Keystone, TB Golden Stone
Dries: Plopper Stone, Chubby Chernobyl
