The Fall River is in summer mode, plenty of fish, plenty of folks fishing for them. Still, an absolute gem and to avoid the busier times got at day break and fish until 10 or 11, or go after work and fish until dusk. Mid afternoons is a great time, but it’s also an easy time to go, and there are other options.
The PMD hatches are ramping up and the BWO hatches are tapering down, but both are around to give you options. Tan caddis and olive caddis both in #16 are good, midges in a #22-24 or cluster type flies like a griffiths gnat in a #18-20, yellow sally #16, and bring a #10 green drake film critic and green drake sparkle dun and an ice drake in case the drakes pop off this week. Almost always around Memorial Day we get some good, consistent green drake hatches on the Fall River, and I know that MD is 2 weeks out, but with the weather being so good so early, I think it’s wise to be prepared with the option.
There have been really good streamer bites with smaller jig streamers, and also very good nymphing with Perdigons, eggs, 2 bit hookers, zebra midges and micro mayflies.
