The Fall River is for the most part fishing well, although I have seen some reports of slower catch rates lately from a few folks that I know. Right time and right place is the adage for a lot of things and fishing spring creeks is no exception.
PMD hatches are going to be the main afternoon hatch for a long time to come this spring and summer. So make sure you fish the entire cycle of nymphs, emergers, duns and spinners and add cripples to the mix to fool these rascals in ultra clear water. It is time to start to see some afternoon Green Drakes on the Fall too. Seems to me the Drakes on the Fall are a solid size 10, rarely seeing the “grandis” #8 like we do on the Metolius.
Olive #16 Caddis, Midges #20-22, BWO #18-20, Ants, Beetles and Attractors like a Purple Hippie Stomper will be great on top. Power Bottom flies (hahaha) will include Tungsten Eggs, Mini Gulp’s, Perdigons, Walts Worms, Rainbow Warriors, SJ Worms, Zebra Midges (tungsten beads are a big advantage) and 2 Bit Hookers.
