Bitterroot Fishing Report – 7/10

Guided Float trips on the Missouri with The Kingfisher Fly Shop

L-DSCN00010

 

The Bitterroot is starting to drop a little more aggressively and the clarity is coming back with it.  The upper sections as well as the east and west fork are far better options right now than the main stem, but even that is looking up.  For dries, use golden stones, PMDs, green drakes, and other attractor patterns. For nymphs, use pheasant tails, caddis pupae, scuds, small micro stones and Pat’s rubber legs. For Streamers use dark bodied buggers and sculpin patterns.

Weekend Fishing Tunes: Gary Clark Jr., Blak and Blu

Awesome blues and R&B guitarist/singer out of Austin, TX. Also a childhood friend/neighbor of mine.

 

HATCHES/Flies: Golden Stones, and other attractor patterns, extended bodies and cripples for the green drakes/March browns. Dark, heavy nymphs for subsurface. JJ’s specials, articulated streamers, bead-head woolly buggers.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: The Kingfisher ~ the largest dealer of Simms Fishing Products in the Rocky Mountain West!
