Bitterroot Fishing Report – 9/28

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

Saturday we saw the clouds we were expecting, although not amount of rain we anticipated. This isn’t a bad thing necessarily. 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.

 

Weekend Fishing Tunes: Empire! Empire! (I Was a Lonely Estate), You Will Eventually Be Forgotten

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.
