EdB Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 i will be camping down at Natures Hideaway this week and was wondering if fishing the Highwood is different than the Bow? Flies different or what. Any help would be great and all are welcome to come down for a beer. Reservation is under Ed Bartlett. Sight is about 10 feet from the river. SWEEEEET.

headscan Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 You're so close to the confluence down there that it's a lot like fishing a smaller version of the Bow. Fewer cutts and more rainbows and browns than the upper Highwood. I had luck on a black BH Prince down there last weekend. GRHE, SJW, and most of the standard nymphs that work on the Bow right now will work there as well. My fish last weekend were all caught on the swing - no indicator. I've also had more luck on emergers than regular dries in that area if you see any risers in the evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flytyer Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Ed try some of those flies from the last swap........some of those should work especially if you are using a hopper dropper combo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
