Clouds are almost always a better deal on the Clark Fork (as the past 2 weeks have demonstrated – how was THAT for crazy good fishing), but this time of the year with the water on the drop, bright sun isn’t the issue it can be in August. While there was an ABRUPT slow down on the Clark the first day of bright conditions, (as there ALLLLLWAYS is), the river is back on track giving up very good topwater action on attractor/dropper rigs, larger parachute mayflies, exacting PMD imitations, and evening caddis. The caddis has been stupid good from about 7 until dark. Olive bodied streamers are pounding the fatties before noon and yesterday, hoppers with PMD dropper rigs were the no change recipe. It’ll be good even in the sun today

HATCHES: green drakes, golden stones, caddis, yellow sallies
