Current Report
Water clarity is 18-24".
Fishing is good, but is
slow. The trout are starting
to move out of their
wintering holes and into the
main currents. Rainbows are
into the full spawn.
Nymphing technique is still
the most successful method
with streamers starting to
move more fish. Start
looking for snouts breaking
the surface during the early
morning, later in the
afternoon and into the
evening.
BWO's, midges are the
dominant hatches. Look for
Caddis and Stoneflies to
start coming out.
Try nymphs suchs as Pheasant
tails, Gold Ribbed Hare's
ears, Prince Nymphs, Golden
stones, San Juan worms,
Green Caddis Larvae, Black
copper johns and Rubber Leg
Beadhead Squirrel tails.
Streamers that have produced
over the past week are black
wooly buggers, Bow river
buggers, clouser minnows,
McCunes Sculpin, White zoo
cougars and bunny leaches.
Try skating some stonefly
patterns for dries, keep an
eye out for trout rising to
midges, try BWO's,
Griffith's Gnats and H&L
Variants
