“Why am I thus scared by fearful visions of the night? O Earth, dread queen, mother of dreams that flit on sable wings!”

Today should be cloudy, but not on the rainy side of things. The forecast calls for sunny weather through next week. The fishing has been very solid on the Bitterroot. We’re seeing a lot of mayflies, and droppers off attractor dries should turn fish. Still keep the BWOs in mind, along with the flies that have been working for the last couple weeks. Hecubas, hoppers, tricos, PMDs, mahoganies, caddis. Tossing a nymph rig is never a bad idea, and the streamer bite could turn hot with the cloud cover.

They’re a part of the recent “emo revival,” and they’re awesome. They’ll be playing a show at the ZACC on October 4th with four other great bands. You won’t want to miss it.

HATCHES/Flies: Hecubas, Tricos, PMDs, caddis, hoppers, BWOs. Dark, heavy nymphs for subsurface. JJ’s specials, articulated streamers, bead-head woolly buggers.
