Field Review - FlyAgra

Have to admit, for the last year or so, my attitude when people raved about FlyAgra was kind of "oh good, another floatant product". Kind of thought we had things covered with the array of products already out there, mostly from Loon Outdoors. I finally broke down and tried it this past week and I must say, it's fabulous. It's first test was a completely fish chewed, ratty,waterlogged Chubby Chernobyl that sunk like a stone. Dropped the fly into the Fly Agra for a second and started fishing again. The fly was like new! Floated like a dream and stayed that way for a long time. This stuff is really good. Couple of things you should know when using it though, don't pre-treat your rubber legged flies with it. It will make the rubber legs very brittle. Just apply and fish immediately. The only other thing, don't spill it in your pack or vest, it's like rocket fuel. It does, however, evaporate in a short time. Try it, you'll like it.

Bugs!

Welcome news for those of us who like to fish dry flies! The above pictured critter has been

kicking around on the river for a little while now with very good numbers this past weekend.

I realize we'll likely get in trouble with the experts, but this is not a Golden Stone, they are

Skwala Stoneflies. There's enough of them around to make it worth while throwing a dry! 

Certain Bow River fish have been rumoured to show a total lack of inhibition with patterns like

the Grillo's Hippie Stomper.....Ah, Foam!

Midges on the river like crazy as well. And with the forecast cloud cover later this week the BWO's

should be rather insane!

Don't mean to completely pick anyone out but we do have a while before we see the ever wonderful

PMD hatch on the Bow.

Should only be 3 or 4 weeks until we see the Caddis! Keep your fingers crossed

for good water conditions. Based on the way the fish have been looking up, if we get caddis

with anything approaching decent visibility and levels....yikes!
