The biggest down side of fishing this past week has been WIND! Earlier in the week was positively hateful with wind….you may have noticed. The last coupleof days have been much better. One might say we’re having perfect September weather right now.
Tricos have made a resurgence with the warmer temps and there’s a lot of fish rising. A lot of them are fairly spooky right now, the “stomp and slosh” approach doesn’t work great.
Lots and lots and lots of Boatman around. Spent Sunday sighting fish and evry fish reacted very positively to a boatman pattern.
Hopper fishing is somewhat schizophrenic, one day it’s quite good, and then the next pretty much sucks. It’s worth a try, within an hour you’ll know which kind of day it is.
Weather forecast for the next while is as good as it gets for end of September.

Small flies, both dry and bead head, are the ticket right now on the Crow! If you get sick of that, a smaller Hopper or Ant fished through the likely holding water will do well.
