I fished it a couple of times long ago. There is a good / very good amount of access and the entire thing is wadable (it's a standard skinny water freestone trout stream). Access either in town or going up the canyon into the national forest. If you have a car and at least a 1/2 day for fish, drive up and down the river looking for open pullouts and access points.
This time of year it'll be midges, blue wing olives, sculpins & wooly buggers on the menu. It'll also be crystal clear, so use long leaders and lots of stealth. They won't move much for your offering, so you'll have to get it right in their face. Don't forget something to de-ice your guides if its cold.
Good luck,

You are most welcome. For stealth, just stay as low as you can and approach from the bottom of the pools directly behind the fish. Don't cast over fish - work your way upriver, fish by fish. Match the color of the sky with your clothes. If it's cloudy, wear light gray...if it's sunny, wear light blue. Avoid wearing dark colors at all costs if you can help it.
Good luck,
