Rock Creek Report – 8/16


DSC_0211REPORT:

Today’s flow near Clinton is 198 cfs compared with 267 cfs a year ago today.  Still an attractor/terrestrial deal up here although standard mayfly and caddis patterns will take fish for you as well.  While it sounds like a broken record, a red bodied humpy or royal Wulff in a 14 is tough to beat.  Hanging droppers about 15″ below your dries will get you some extra fish too and we’ve been liking an olive p-tail or green copper John for that.  Look for conditions to be about the same as yesterday on the creek today.

1/2 OFF Fridays.  50% Off your 1st dozen nymphs and dries!  Every Friday – Every Week  

FLIES: PMDs, caddis, hoppers, ants and spruce moths

 

OTHER INFO: The Kingfisher is Missoula’s oldest flyshop under continual and local ownership with, get this, NO branch stores in California!
