Blackfoot Fishing Report – 8/22


Bitterroot Fishing Report - 4/5
Guide reports from the Blackfoot the last couple days have been really good. The lower section has been great with hoppers (no dropper necessary, apparently). Spruce moths are still out and about, and will probably get heavy again with some warmer weather. For dries use big elk hair caddis, spruce moth patterns, hoppers, Chernobyls, Stimulators, Rogue stones, half downs, bullet heads, parachute adams, and purple hazes. For nymphs use Pat’s rubber legs, princes, double beaded stones, micro stones, San Juan worms and batman nymphs. For streamers use big dark double bunnies, sculpzillas, mouthwashes, standard buggers, sparkle minnows and dark articulated patterns.

 

HATCHES: spruce moths, golden stones, PMDs, caddis

PATTERNS: Red or pink San Jaun worms in tandem with size 12 or 14 squirrel tail nymphs. Sculpzilla streamers, JJ’s specials, Prince nymphs, girdle bugs.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: You know we’ll refill your Kingfisher-label gink bottles for a buck, don’tcha?
