444 CFS (Wagon Wheel)

We have seen a pretty good bump in flows this fall, making for some great Baetis and streamer floats going on.

If you don’t have a boat, don’t worry, wade fishing is good too with hatches of BWOs.

It will get real cold this week, so full nymph rigs will find them in the deeper water when nothing is rising.

Nymphs: Prince nymphs 12-18, Runt Stone Golden 12-16, Pat’s Rubberlegs 8-12, 20 Incher 10-14, Flashback Pheasant Tail 14-20, Blowtorch Jig 14-16, Hydropsyche Caddis nymph 14-16. Splitback BWO Nymph 18-22, Juan’s Jedi Master 20, Juju Baetis 18-20.

Streamers: Sculpinator, El Sculpito, Mini Dungeon, Sparkle Minnows.
