wtforward Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 No offense Kyle but why not just try it and report back if so inclined ? Quote
ÜberFly Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 Or check out the Bow River Reports thread! P No offense Kyle but why not just try it and report back if so inclined ? Quote
theiceman2 Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 I believe there are quite a few caddis hatches and the odd stone still skipping around. SJW and stimulators are always a good choice for searching patterns if you just find yourself getting skunked. Also where you are in a boat try taking advantage of undisturbed water by undercut banks with hopper patterns, even a hopper dropper if you like, also streamers are great to swing in search of browns. Good luck, and I hope you nail em! Quote
johnbransfield Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Kyle, Male tricos are falling in the morning, so have some male and female spinners in about 18-22. Caddis arn't as thick as they were but fish are still nailing them so it wouldn't hurt to have a few around 16 or 18. Also try hopper dropper close to the bank, there are fish holding tight that will hit a hopper or Chernobyl hard. Also fish a bow river bugger bugger or dark streamer patterns deep and try trailing a caddis emerger or smaller nymph 16-20" behind. Have fun out there man, and good luck. John Quote
