I don't fish the river much, but I drive the road every day between Glenwood and rifle. Lots of boats on the river but the river is still higher than normal. Good luck

It’s very fishable right now. Some of the best big rainbow fishing I’ve seen in recent years. 4-8lbs fish are very common right now. Big streamers or original floating Rapalas in black/silver or black/gold fished along steep bank cuts. The river is still an usually high for this time of year so be careful and always wear your pfd.
