Clark Fork Fishing Report – 8/22


L-37

*Hoot Owl is still in play from Warm Springs down to where Flint Creek dumps in*

 

The Clark Fork is going to be a decent option today with the weather we have on tap. Bring some baetis’, chubby patterns and a rain coat just in case. The bump in flows that we have seen hasn’t had any detriment to the fishing, but we’ll see how much rain we get this week, I’m optimistic though. For dries, use elk hair and Goddard caddis’ in the evening, tricos, PMDs and PEDs, attractor patterns, golden rogues, chubby chernobyls for the morning and afternoon. For nymphs, use Pat’s rubber legs, micro stones, prince nymphs, double beaded stones, San Juan worms, caddis pupae, Pheasant tails and batman nymphs. For streamers, use big black and olive patterns fished tight to the banks and in deeper holes.

 

HATCHES: caddis, hoppers, golden stones, tricos, pmds

FLIES: Morris Hoppers, chubby chernobyls, caddis, Prince nymphs, golden stones/nymphs, streamers.
