The Missouri can’t seem to hold a consistent flow for longer than 24 hours, but trust that it will be in the 6000cfs range this weekend, and the fishing should be good. With summer fishing nearly in full swing, you’ll see good dry action in the mornings and late evenings, and steady nymph fishing during the warmer hours of the day. For dry flies, we’re looking at PMD cripples, standard Adams parachutes, midge clusters, elk hair caddis, parachute baetis, baetis button emergers and small flying ants. For subsurface, stick with sow bugs, czech nymphs, caddis pupae, scuds, small PTs and lightning bugs. For streamers use black, olive or brown sculpzillas, woolhead sculpins, standard buggers and JJ’s specials.
