The Octobers are pretty much done, but you can still get fish to look up and eat a dry in the late afternoons. Most fish will fall to the small black offerings. The overall winner was a dark BP Weiss nymph. Small, black nymphs would be the go-to method with good clarity this time of year, #18-20 Zebra Midges, X-Mays, and Perdigons will work best. Fishing tailouts with streamers like Barr's olive or black Slumpbuster or your favorite Sculpin will produce. Streamers can net a big Brown. To reserve a day with one of our expert guides to experience one of the most picturesque streams in the north state, call Bryan in Outfitters at 800-669-3474.
