The river’s back on the drop and beginning to fish again – especially with streamers and the afternoon/evening caddis. We’re having decent success during the day with BIG attractor stuff like red paraX patterns with deep nymph droppers. Stimi chew toys, tarantulas . . anything big and buggy! The streamers and caddis have been where it’s at though. Brighter colored peach, yellow, chartreuse and then . . .black. Those have been the best colors for us in the past 2 days subsurface. Starting about 3:30, the caddis have been coming off huge and dead-drifting or skating anything from smaller (like a 12) elk hair, Goddard, or yellow stimi will get you action. The best of it is from around 3:30 until about 6. The Blackfoot is definitely worth a look today!
