crowds in mid march

[Randall]

this year for spring break, i want to get my dad, my brother, and i together to do some fly-fishing up by the dam before my bro leaves for basic. i'd like to know what kind of crowds there are, because i don't want to set it up when it'll be packed. i'm thinking middle of the week, but i've never been down there in the spring. i appreciate any input.

Go in the middle of a march thunderstorm that will get you plenty of room for yourself! No seriously, I think usually midweek is the best time to go down there. It's hit or miss to me, but I would probably avoid weekends unless that is your only time available. Seems midweek has always been the best times for me and earlier in the morning seems to be less crowded.

We go every year in mid March and it is not crowded mid week. Friday the crowds start but Monday to Thursday it is not bad. If there is any kind of weather it holds down the crowds.

Monday thru Thursday has always been the lightest for me. Even if it is

crowded there are so many place people don't fish. A great place is right

above outlet #2. It holds tons of fish and is hardly fished at all.

Also if you fish just on top of the rebar it usually pretty open there.

Remember top not in the middle of it.

sounds good... we'll probably end up going.

I would strongly advise a 3 day 2 night TUE WED THUR fishing stay.

Also, don't forget to bring your rain gear.
