Fishing Reports

Bow River Report –August 20, 2012


Pretty decent fishing over the last several days, other than the massive water drop last Wednesday, that wasn’t so good.
Hopper fishing has been pretty good, we’re seeing more Caddis, and Tricos are getting going!
Like always, the lower light (cloudy) days will fish easier.

Hatches: Hoppers, Caddis, PMD’s, Tricos, Pseudos on the cloudy days

Streamers: Slap-N-Tickle, C/H R/L Bugger-Black, Egg Stealing Super Sculpin

Dry Flies: Berrett’s Golden Stone-Barred Leg, Frankenhopper, Slice Above Hopper, Bloom’s CDC Caddis, Glitter Flag Ant
