FISHING REPORTS

Bow River Report –September 14, 2011


Last couple of days have been kind of a major switch. From very hot to grey and cold. For the most part the fish haven’t reacted well to the cooler temperatures. Even with the blanket hatches of Pseudos nad Baetis Mayflies, there have been limited numbers of rising fish. The Hopper fishing has slowed as well.

Temperatures are supposed to come back up starting today and that should mean for improved fishing.

All of a sudden there are “zillions” of Water Boatmen around as well!
