Current Report
I fished the Big Thompson
for a few hours over the
course of two cold snowy
days during the weekend of
4/30/05. Late in the day
the trout were taking sub-
surface emerging midges with
much gusto. There was a
spattering of adult baetis
on the surface but were not
attracting the attention of
the fish, much to my
frustration. That following
Sunday morning I did quite
well on a bead head stonefly
pattern, catching about a
dozen rainbows in about an
hour in a 100 yard stretch
of water. The weather was
nasty but the fishing is
excellent. Water levels are
low and fairly clear.
Midges, stoneflies, and
BWO's! Fish on!
