Bow River Report –August 28, 2012
Trico fishing has been pretty stellar the last few days. Lots of fish rising in some pretty cool places. Thankfully our fish will eat a low profile CDC Caddis or a small Ant so we don’t have to use ridiculously little bugs we can’t see.
There are a ton of fish up on bars right. A small Hopper/Chernobyl pattern will often work. Or, if the dry doesn’t do the trick, hang a small bead under the dry. They can’t resist.
Hopper fishing has been, overall, very good. The afternoons have been better and it seems to happen in waves. You’ll rise a bunch of fish on Hoppers in one area, the next area very few and you start thinking you should change, and then it turns up again.
Cloudy days still produce insane rising fish on Pseudos, etc. The streamer fishing is also best on the dark days.
Hatches: Hoppers, Caddis, Tricos, Pseudos on the cloudy days
Streamers: Slap-N-Tickle, C/H R/L Bugger-Black, Egg Stealing Super Sculpin
Nymphs: Tung Stud, Peacock Water Boatman, TB Biotic Nymph
Dry Flies: Frankenhopper, Yeager’s Hopper, Slice Above Hopper, Bloom’s CDC Caddis, Glitter Flag Ant
