Blackfoot Report – 10/15


The streamer fishing has definitely ratcheted up a few notches recently and brown or black woolhead stuff greased up and stripped just subsurface is turning some monster fish for us with near dryfly like strikes – GOOD STUFF!  The dry fly fishing is okay but it has been of short duration with nymphs on each side of the window producing the most fish.  We’re getting fish to rise for bigger skittering October caddis (like) stuff in 8s and 10s and mahoganies in the size 14 to 16 range. If you’re chasing numbers, it’s still tough to beat tandem nymph rigs using the standard fare such as double beads, silli legs, batmans and red San Juans.
