Monday (June 29) is the best fishing day this week because it’s the only day with a perfect 5/5 solunar rating, a major feeding window that aligns with manageable wind, and both trout species fully active at 61°F water.
- Solunar rating 5/5 – That’s the peak of the week. The next best is Tuesday at 4/5, then a steep drop to 3/5 and 2/5 for the rest of the week. The major feeding period runs 9:54 AM – 12:24 PM, which matches the lighter morning wind (11–12 mph) from the hourly forecast.
- Water temp (61°F) sits dead-center in the optimal range for both rainbow and cutthroat trout (45–65°F). The cooling trend (–3.1°F over recent readings) hasn’t pushed fish off feed yet—they’re still active and willing to chase.
- Wind and pressure play in your favor. Monday’s 11–15 mph WNW wind kicks up the western basins, stirring bait and giving you a wind-blown bank advantage. Yes, pressure is rising, but the solunar peak and moderate wind (no 45-mph gusts like Sunday) extend the bite window long enough to capitalize.
The bottom line: Tuesday through Friday have weaker solunar scores and worsening pressure trends. Monday is the clear winner. Get on the water by 9:00 AM, hit the western basin thermal edges, and work the wind-blown points through the 9:54–12:24 window. Don’t waste that 5/5 day.
