Fished Cheesman on Tuesday during high flows and it fished well. We began by throwing streamers in the family pool, and the Bouface in black seemed to do well. This was the only wading that we did the entire day. Creeping upstream along the edges was really productive as we nymphed within 8' of the bank, never stepping foot in the water. We were able to hook rainbows and browns that we could spot holding in the softer water. Fishing double nymph rigs with a San Juan or stonefly in front and a small baetis pattern behind worked extremely well. Now is a good time to fish as you don't need waders and the crowds are really down
