Fishing Reports

Bow River Report –July 6, 2017

If you don’t keep up with Instagram you might want to know that the Stonefly emergence has started. The days of parking lot sanity and solitude are over for a little bit.

The big foam bugs will work early and late in the day (low light periods). During the brighter hours of the day try a hopper/dropper rig. Foam bug on top with a stonefly nymph about two feet under it.

With a little color in the water the streamer fishing has been pretty darn good as well.

It is that time of year that we all wait for. Things are happening!
