Fishing Reports - July 13

Bow River Report –July 13, 2017

After our little hellfire and brimstone event on Monday night and Tuesday morning, the river has restored itself to a good condition.

Still a good number of Stonefly naturals around, with fish eating the dries and nymphs.

Caddis hatches are occurring in the “drive you crazy” levels (LOTS of bugs).

There are PMD’s around, but not enough most of the time to get the fish up much. We have found a few fish on them, but not many.

Streamer fishing continues to be very good, producing some fabulous fish, both Rainbow and Brown.

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!

Hatches:  Caddis, Stoneflies, PMD’s

Dry Flies:  Berrett’s Brown Leg Golden Stone, Chubby Chernobyl, CDC Caddis,
