The creek is in pretty good shape for floating but a little too high to wade safely. The water is running with about 3 feet of visibility. The dry fly fishing has been slower but a chubby and a worm has been the way to get them. With the warmer weather we will be having look for the creek to start bumping steadily.  

Here are a few tips for fly fishing Rock Creek:

1. Dry droppers have been effective
2. Fish the slow inside bends and deeper pools
3. Fish where you can't see the bottom

Here are a few fly suggestions:

1. Brindlechute, 14-16

2. Spanish Bullet, black 14-16

3. Purple chubby 10-14 

4. Kreelex Minnow size 6, in copper/gold

5. TJ Hooker size 10-12, in coffee/black

6. Pheasant Tail Nymph size 12-20

 

Flows and looking ahead:

Rock Creek is currently sitting at 1430 cfs
