The Kingfisher Fly Shop

The the Mo fish are quite a bit more skittish in the bright conditions, but it’s definitely made for some great insect activity.  Tandem nymph rigs down deep under an indicator will almost certainly be your most effective approach again today although you should still encounter singles and pods willing to play on top.  Lots…

Flows are dropping, bugs are flying, fish are looking.  This weather was made for the Blackfoot!  There are tons of salmonflies out and about mid river and higher.  In today’s warm and sunny conditions, you’ll be able to see just how many . . so will the fish!  In addition to that hatch, there at…

REPORT: The river sections above Missoula all the way up are JUST now heading back down from a bump in flows that knocked back the fishing a bit.  It’s still good, but not what it was.  By tomorrow, this upper river will be solidly back in the game.  The lower river down around Superior and…

It’s going to be GOOD up here today pretty much river-wide.  While the first day of bright sun would normally stall the action for a day or two, the fact that the river still has some color to the water from runoff will compensate at bit.  Expect good fishing with golden stones, big mayfly patterns…

Rachel and Zylpha getting some puppy time with Ruby and Charlie.  Nothing like a fly shop for socializing pups.  

Today’s rainy weather should do good things for your Missouri prospects both on top and subsurface.  Look for a bit better fishing in the morning now, than we’ve been seeing the past week in the heat.  Streamers and nymphs should also be more consistent throughout the day as well.  The majority of the bug activity…

On the drop these days with a temporary blip of a bump this morning due to the rain.  It was close to fishing very well yesterday mid river, but a day away.  Today may be the day!  Look for mayflies to be the workhorse bug in the humid conditions.  The “Bitterroot Stones” are out and…

REPORT: It’s been good stuff on the river lately provided you’ve been way up high or way down low.  The mid river floats and wading opportunities have varied from sleepy to spectacular just depending on the day.  High and low have provided MUCH better consistency the past week.  TONS of the mid sized yellow/orange stoneflies…
