We’ve had boats going out to both ends of the Clark Fork the last week or so, and it’s all been good. Streamers on the upper end, dry fly heaven on the lower end. For dries, use elk hair and Goddard caddis in the evening, tricos, mayfly duns and criplles, 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.
