Bow River Report –September 11, 2014
We have to admit, none of us felt the compulsion to fish the last couple of days. However, we did send some folks who really wanted to fish to a couple likely dry fly spots. They found lots of fish rising on BWO mayflies every afternoon this week.
Even after the sudden pulse of winter, the river will likely continue to fish just fine. We have probably seen the last of the Tricos but if it warms up like they say, hoppers should fish OK again.
Water Boatmen are showing up in a big way in the lower stretches. This is one of our favorite hatches/events every year.
Long story short….lots of good fishing yet to come before winter sets in.
Fish Creek launch is closed until around September 19 for repairs. And with the rain of yesterday and today, you might want to avoid McKinnon’s for a day or so.

High Country River Report – September 11, 2014
Might not be a bad idea to give the high country a few days to return to more normal fall conditions. With average and above average temperatures forecast for next week they’ll start to fish just fine.
Some of the streams got a lot of snow in their headwaters so if it warms up quick there might be a little pulse of dirty water. Best to check with us before heading out.
