The Blackfoot bumped from the rain last week, but it has settled back down into normal flows, around 800cfs. Today is supposed to be the last nice day for the remainder of the week, as a front bearing storms is on the way. For dries use big elk hair caddis, 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.
