Missouri River Hatch Report – 4/16


DSCN0052REPORTS: The fish are more than willing to play both on top and subsurface these days, provided the wind isn’t constantly howling. Decent topwater action in the mornings and late afternoons on midges and some blue wings with good indicator nymphing on the usual suspects. Streamers have been coming on strong, too, in the past week and a half with smaller, darker bodied buggers working the best. It’s all about the wind right now.
FLIES: Griffith’s gnats 16-20, lighting bugs, RS2, p-tails, scuds, muted and small streamers

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Once this front has settled in and the leading edge isn’t causing gale force winds, the fishing over here should be amazing!
