It will be pretty crowded in May, but it's a fairly big river by trout fishing standards so you should be able to find a good spot to fish without much trouble. Good luck.

Crowded: you can find space. A few tips. Get to the stream at or before daybreak. Sit next to a riffle, followed by a run and entering into a pool. If after observation, you see no rising fish, tie on a nymph rig and dredge the riffle. Then dredge through the run if there are still no risers. Finally, once you see risers in the run or pool below, tie on a dry fly and if necessary, a dropper.

Victory,
The top spots fill up first. Look at it this way.... is the "lower 30%" of the fishing spots on the J better than where you usually fish?
The water is at a excellent level now and you can find spots all along the river. Unless we get an inch of rain
