Fishing Reports-A Little More Detail

Bow River Report –July 14, 2014

The Bow is fishing very good. Even with the significant sun and heat over the last week it continues to fish well.
Evening Caddis has been good, especially above the Highwood. PMD’s are still around in decent numbers and if we get any cloud cover fish should look up to them.
Stoneflies are, as usual at this time, in full swing. Low light periods of the day offer the best dry fly action. Through the middle portion of the day, when the sun is high, throw a Stonefly nymph under the dry. This has been somewhat silly good, with lots of eats on the nymph and the odd eat on the dry.
Streamer fishing has been good as well.
If we get the cloud they are calling for at the end of the week the river should be amazing for dry flies and streamers.

McKinnon`s road and launch area are open. Having said that, we ask that people think twice about using McKinnon’s when we see heavy rainfall. The road will not support rain and vehicles in its present state. Carseland is now open for public use, a nice surprise. Lower city launches and Policeman’s launches open. Be careful taking out at Policeman’s!
