Streamer fishing on the Blackfoot is picking up big time. So much so, even the whitefish are getting involved (according to one of our guides), but that’s an unusual circumstance. Just know that some of the biggest fish of the year are pulled when drowning rabbit fur. For dries use October caddis, tricos, big PMDs, BWOs, elk hair caddis, hoppers, Chernobyls, Orange Stimulators, parachute adams, and purple hazes. For nymphs use Pat’s rubber legs, princes, double beaded stones, micro stones, beer head baetis, San Juan worms, October caddis pupae and batman nymphs. For streamers use big dark double bunnies, sculpzillas, mouthwashes, standard buggers, sparkle minnows and dark articulated patterns.
